    ... I use the forum as an external brain...

     

    In your sample image, what are you considering the artifacts and what do you think the image should look like?

    Great thinking! 😉

     

    Well...it should look like a basic 3D extrude. Not like this:

    Often you end up with an object "off in space" that will cause this problem. It does not matter how much of the drawing is distant from the origin, only that something is distant.

     

    Been there, done that. 🙂 No solution.


  3. Thanks for the feedback!

    It did that graphical bug to me when my file's origin was set to the center of the model and the model was "only" 2km wide and 2km long. One time before that it was only a tiny house where the same graphical bug appeared with the same internal origin centered in the house model. Weird, but i'll keep that in mind. Thanks.

    @Kazemester Hard to say what's going wrong without seeing the files. One thing that comes to mind is that mapping in Data Manager is for Class based objects, so when you create Extrudes using Modify by Record they will be created on active Class. If that is not the same as the Class you mapped data to, it won't work. If it still doesn't come through, try mapping in the Data Manager after you've extruded the Polygons making sure the objects are on correct classes, perhaps that will do the trick.

    Let me know if you manage to do it.

    Good luck!

    Thanks @Luka Stefanovic! The class messed it up after the extrude! Now it works as it should! Thank you again!

    Yes and some will say, simply wait until each version matures before switching to it , but what's frustrating is that just when a version starts to work... attention then moves to the next one, and any remaining problems with the 'old' one go unfixed.

    Yup...capitalism at its best.

  6. This is the backside of having yearly "updates". I wish there was at least a 2 year dev process when a new release is launched... But we have new releases every year just when the "older" version starts to work...after SP 5 -6...and we have to start all over again every September... sigh.

  7. By the way...is there any way i can go through DOORS in walls?? I can not walk through even if the doors are open even when i tick the "walk through walls" option. (I know i know...the door is not wall...Any DEV lurking around on the forums?)

    Much appreciate it.

     

  8. Hi,

     

    is there any way i can export my pointcloud to Web View in a better view than the pictures attached? (low-medium-high settings don't do anything) It does not even show rgb points only for a second than it all turns black.

    Or Web View is just another show off feature? (The last picture is in VW how it should look like.)

    Thanks.

    But just in case. FWIW, my method (above ) is not really a workaround, it is just the way the procedure is (re) designed in VW's 2020.

     

    Please make a video how to make a simple orbit animation of a cube in Isometric ("looking down 45degrees") view. As simple as it was in 2019. Thank you.

    When you map the data from a Record Format to a custom Ifc pSet, you should be seeing actual values from the individual object, not the defaults from the Record Format

    When i add the record format to the custom Ifc pSet and leave it as it is than the values are blank. When i do the "Define mapping" /simple formula - Recorf format value / it just adds the deafult values from the record format. So it doesn't work either way...

  11. It still does not work for me...whatever i do i can only pitch the camera from deafult views (front, side...etc.). I usually make a 3d locus and i try to select the cameras one by one and pitch them (target the locus). It is a pain in the a**. (Therefore i still have 2019 installed and do orbit animations there...Two steps forward, i step backward.)

    Final step is to define Data Mapping for the Data Fields in the Ifc Data Set and link those with Simple Formula using Initial Field value as Record Format and then select the field you want to map to.

     

    The data mapping is a big help, but still...if i do this way there are still no values added to the fields in IFC pSet other than the deafult values from the record format. I want to add the values from the 2D shape's individual record values to the IFC custom pSet values. As i have 1011 extrudes (1011 2D polys with 3X1011 values) i want to have a custom pSet with the same record in the IFC with those. (1st image with 0,0,0 is the 3D objects IFC custom pSet, the 2nd image is what is should be.)

  13. Thanks, but there is no connection between the record and the height. The records show different data than height, so i simply use the Extrude command and attach IFC to them.

    Edit: I need to attach IFC to the extrudes anyway and i have to add the record there as custom pSet so the IFC export contains my data. (IFC export doesn't export simple records only IFC pSets...)

  14. Dear VW users,

    I have a georeferenced shapefile imported which contains a lot of 2D polygons with a record and a couple of fields filled with data.

    I want to extrude the shapes into 3D and classify them in IFC, but the data is lost in the process, I was only able to "save" the record format into the IFC pset.  ( I can add the record format in the IFC property list, but only the format not the data... Of course i can copypaste them one by one, but i have a couple thousand items to copypaste.)

    Does anyone had the same issue before? Do you guys have a solution for my problem or a python script that i can use? /The only purpose to this is to export data with IFC export which was in the shapefile./

    My workflow is the following:

    1. Importing shapefile with polygons with data attached to them
    2. Extruding the 2d polygons
    3. Attach IFC to them
    4. Add custom pSet to IFC (the same as imported with the 2d polys)
    5. Copy-paste record data from 2D to custom pSet into IFC «- this is what i can't do automatically only manually

     

    Thanks for the help!

     

  15. Now with the new VW2020 version I try to make an orbit animation (which was so easy to do in the earlier versions---i don't know why you devs always have to change stuff that work), but whatever I try it just does not work. I try to make an Ortogonal projection fly around my pointcloud, but it always shows a "flat" orbit around with the cameras pointing straight.

    If i untick that box than i can set the keyframes 1 by 1 by selecting the cameras and pitch them (which does NOT work in 3D of course....in 3D it only rotates on the xy plane....) on frontal views. And the result is...

    Am i stupidly doing something wrong or it should work but it is bugged? (It is SP3 now...)

    Thanks for the help.

  16. Hi,

    We (university teachers) have to teach from home because of the corona virus and I need to open my students files what they make to give them grades.

    I have VW professional version, but they use student licences and i can not open their VW files. (Sometimes some student version files opened up with the message it is watermarked and was made in the student version, but they stopped doing it.) Is there a preference option to "tick" to open files in a watermarked way in the pro version?

    I don't want to use a different user account just to have a different licence number (student) added to my VW as i have set up everything for the pro version not to mention all the university apps that i need to use for keeping he class.

    Thanks.
