toggle more options in IFC_ExportNoUI(path)

[matteoluigi]

Hi,

 

I guess, the only option I can use in the IFC_ExportNoUI(path) command is the path. For all other options I will need the command IFC_ExportWithUI, am I right?

Hi @matteoluigi,

Yes, that was the intention. In order to setup layer mapping and options, it is not necessary to make an export - open IFC Export, setup all and press Save Settings.

hm, ok. When I start scripting, I want to control as much as possible from the script. so, imo there should be way more options, including the option of using the saved settings, of course, too. (like IFC_ExportNoUI(path) with no options -> saved settings)

that worked. However I wonder, because all settings should have been saved due to already in the past executed ifc-exports...

Obviouosly you need to click the "save settings" button, too.

Please, do not forget to save the document after IFC Export.

or save and commit including document settings...
We also created a new project file in order to get that settings in the vwxp-file.

 

damn, I guess, that those settings don't survice a Project Sharing commit...

well, in a project sharing document you need to:

1) open IFC Export, setup all and press Save Settings

2) save a copy as vwx file

3) create a new vwxp file from that vwx file (committing document settings obviously doesn't commit ifc-export settings) 😞
