General Discussion

@agroni said in The logic of element relations with spaces:

I would really like to know this “Solibri Calculation”. Can someone from the @Solibrians give input?

E.g. https://society.solibri.com/topic/1982/ito-location-nearest-space/2

Is this using a OneClick plugin for Solibri to import material data from the IFC into OneClick?

If so probably best speaking to them directly - their support team are pretty good.

@Pasi-Paasiala It’s filtering in general, not relate to any rule.

Some classification optimization tips:

Avoid “any” in the classification filter. If classififying beams and columns. Add there rows in the filter. Remove needless columns. E.g. Component column is not needed if the filter is set to classify only only type of components. Use first match in the classification rules. Best match is rarely needed and requires all rules to be processed. When using first match order most common matching row at start.

Hi Menno,

Have you tried this? https://sourceforge.net/p/ifcexporter/wiki/Exporting Zones/
Expert tip: Use Key schedules for you rooms to achieve this.

You have my number call me if you have more questions.

@paola-bronzo said in Model Revision Comparison:

@Matti-Kannala other means? what are you referring to?

The rule uses many other ways (if allowed) than GUID to find the peer component for modified cases e.g:

The components are having exactly the same geometry the doors/windows filling the same opening the components are clashing mostly

I don’t know if I can help you, but I use this XML structure below to update models:

<?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“ISO-8859-1”?>
<batch name=“UPDATE MODELS” default=“root”>

<target name=“root”>

<openmodel file="C:..." /> <autoupdatemodels/> <savemodel file="C:..." /> <exit />

</target>
</batch>

And to make it run at night, I use the Task Scheduler to run a .bat file like this:

@ECHO off

ECHO Autorun operating…
ECHO Please wait…

REM In the line below, you change the path to the SMC file for autorun.
“C:\Program Files\Solibri\SOLIBRI\Solibri.exe” “(xml path) C:…”

exit

@ Ricardo, Remember my product choice will allow you to chooce a different product type.

@JSN said in Floor asignment of components:

Edit: Is the checking of the containment hierarchy not intended to work on indiviudal disciplines? It seems like that checkbox is not reflecting the selections above at all.

This is especially annoying if you also get linked drawings as issues which on top you can’t even simply mark as accepted.

@Matti-Kannala

The file is fine.

As I wrote in my edit my guess is that there was a disruption during the model loading process. I did update a bunch of models in the background so I am not sure how and why this occured.

You can install many extensions. We cannot set change role automatically to use role of the extension. We don’t know which role the user wants to use or does the user wants use a role from extension at all. User needs to do the decision about the role. The role can also contain a layout. So when the role is chosen the layout is changed as well.

@rohanbailey said in Model Comparison - Check Geometry / Location:

We usually have issues with consultants not complying to co-location instructions and we would like to have a preliminary check to confirm alignment before clash detection. If it is a gateway ruleset then we would be able to automatically carry on to clashes if the rules are passed.

I don’t have those specific rules available any more. They are pretty simple to configure though. Actually solely the rules would not help you much either as they depend on the framework. Modelling specifications and information requirements have to be defined and communicated first before they can be implemented by your consultants.

@Solibrians
Any comments, this is very serious bug

sorry i mean role

@JSN said in Adding a Role to a desktop shortcut when starting Solibri?:

@Mats_Knutsson said in Adding a Role to a desktop shortcut when starting Solibri?:

Is it also possible to add the role to the windows shortcut?

Which “windows shortcut”? You can of course also change the one(s) you already have in the start menu folder if it’s that what you want.

I’d like an icon (shortcut) on my desktop. I’ve added -office to force start Office and for the other shortcut I’ve added -anywhere to force start in Anywhere. Now I’d like to add (if possible) which role to start with.

@Solibrians
Is there any way to determine element RGB color with Solibri?

In IFC itself it is possible to have a IfcClassification with parent/child relationships
