so much thanks!

@lasse-lindqvist got it. thanks

What do you mean add images?
Add images, like a screenshot, to an issue?

@lasse-lindqvist said in Solibri and Virtual Desktops:

hs_err_pid*.log

…so I did some more troubleshooting, and as a part of this I remembered having adjusted the memory cache, distributing it a little more to other drive partitions instead of holding it all on C:. (this all roughly coincided with other changes to my system, so I had multiplpe variables to check…)

I have now increased the maximum cache on drive C : from under 50Gb to 250Gb (it was this large on other drives earlier), and for now the problems I’ve been having seem to have cleared up. So possibly/probably this was all due to Windows memory cache running out, specifically on drive C:(?).

@chris said in Export Classification in Ifc:

@bim1337 Ifc Files with complex geometries. CurtainWalls? Pipes? Profiles?

Idea to run the IFC through the IFC optimizer first?
Another program that I use is Simplebim, for re-exporting an IFC. This helps sometimes with buggy IFC models…

@manongrobben said in BCF Live Connector - can't sync with BIMcollab:

@Ricardo
Thank you, that worked!

No problem, I am glad it worked!

@matti-kannala Hi Matti, any updates on this?

C:\Users\user.name\API
is different from
C:\Users\Public\Solibri\SOLIBRI\API

not sure that makes the difference there.

I am not sure we want to change how deleting JARs from the lib folder works really. It is anyway an admin-restricted path in most systems, so it is not the usual way for users to add API resources, even though it works.

@Kenneth-Krogseth When are the winners announced? Now in wintertime i could use a good sweater…

You’re welcome.

You can add pdf’s by selecting ‘add models’.

As far as I know there is no way to creating rules for pdf files.

Hello all,

We are Hoppenbrouwers Techniek, a Dutch MEP company, we Engineer\Construction\Maintenance Building\Site installations. Some of the applicaties we use are;

Revit - To design and engineer.
BCF - To communicate challenges between different applications
Solirbi - For checking and validating models.
Dalux - We are currently starting this up.

Of course we still use the coffee corner tho share thoughts and applications like AutoCAD, Office. Because of the simple reason, not everything is BIM (yet).

Hey,

Thanks for the reply. I am not completely sure if I understood your answer, though, so I’ll try to explain a bit further.

In my ITO I have several columns, that mainly consists of “Classifications” and “Color”-columns connected to each of these Classifications. In that way, I have several different colors in the ITO list (based on the Classifications), which is great, but I’d like to be able to choose which one of these represent the color in 3D. As it is now, it’s the color-column furthest to the right in the list.

This could be easily solved by moving the color column I’d like all the way to the right (or atleast after the “last” color-column), but from a “list point of view”, this isn’t how I’d like it formatted. As it is now, it is the furthest to the left Color-column i’d like to show up in 3D. This is because this is the “main” status/classification, and it makes sense that it is placed all the way to the left, and not the right.

TLDR; I still need different color columns based on different Classifications, unless I misunderstood your soloution completely, that is. I don’t think one “Color”-classification could solve my issue?

Thank you all! Looks like the feature I was looking for.

@john-lipp Thank you very much 😊

You can use the dimension tool to take point to point measurements.

If you need to report the lengths in ITO or check them in a rule, you are limited to the Length, Length (Minimum), Thickness, Thickness (Minimum), Height, Height (Minimum) under the Quantities for walls.

You may have a native Dimension property sets.

For miter joins it can be tricky since the inside face length can be shorter than the outside, but perhaps you can use the Length (Minimum) for inside and Length for outside:
