General Discussion

Hi Richardo!

Yes, everyone is using Solibri, but I think we found the problem. Seems to be a difference somehow if the BCF file is saved with 2.0 or 2.1. So for 2.1 it shows all objects, but when saving with 2.0 it isolates the objects as intended. Does not make to much sense for me, but at least it works with 2.0 🙂

@lasse-lindqvist I did find the log files, one of them is an “error” log file, so I will send it over to Solibri. Can’t really understand what it’s saying 🙂

@Lauri-Luoma Of course! The information I recive dfrom MagiCAD, was to have the “Export port definitions” activated in MagiCAD 2021 and with IFC 2x3. With IFC 4, it might be a bit trickier, meaning that it should be included in the export, but it can be that the information can not yet be read by Solibri. f0d3e194-c67d-4f14-aa10-9efc5215a3d8-image.png

@lasse-lindqvist That is so helpful, thank you so much!
I was beginning to think i would have to make a ruleset that outputted all components, just to get that list…😊

Did you see the replies here?
https://society.solibri.com/topic/1078/no-predefined-type-for-ifcbeam-in-solibri/7?_=1632761849501
Is it showing in an ITO?

Do I have a bad feeling that Solibri is not getting correctly the IFC Schema in the USERDEFINED level?

Good question …

@konrad
Thank you, got the email from Nava. Will aim to resolve it this week.

Hi @Matthew-Lohden

Below is an article that was updated for version 9.12.7 on coordination report templates that includes a detailed list of the keywords:

@mathieu-farine Okay i understand. Interesting way to check the BIM modellers work 😀

Thank you very much @chris!

This is what I am looking for.
I tried it in many different situations and it is working.

I wish you a great day
Anees

@ricardo Great!

128 / 256 character limit?

Hi @czoog

I setup a similar check, and it doesn’t appear that the checkbox T/F value set is actually being used in the rule.

This rule is actually an API example, and looking at the code, the checkbox in the UI EffectiveCoverageAreaRuleUIDefinition sets a rpPropagateToConnectedSpaces variable in the EffectiveCoverageAreaRule.java, but this variable isn’t used in any of the other .java sources.

https://solibri.github.io/Developer-Platform/9.12.7/effectiveCoverageAreaRuleExample.html

https://github.com/Solibri/api-examples/blob/master/rule-examples/src/main/java/com/solibri/smc/api/examples/effectivecoveragearearule/EffectiveCoverageAreaRule.java

https://github.com/Solibri/api-examples/blob/master/rule-examples/src/main/java/com/solibri/smc/api/examples/effectivecoveragearearule/EffectiveCoverageAreaRuleUIDefinition.java

This rule was developed to check for ventilation coverage within rooms (travel distance occuluded)

You use I assume would be for travel distance between rooms and would travel between rooms through doors?

If you would like, you can send an email to [email protected] and I’ll pick it up to send to our R&D.

Best regards

SOLUTION: User was not logged-in/user information was not visible in the Settings/General.
Removed tick in the box “Remember me” then closed Solibri. Was promted to log-in, then…TADAA

I would call this a bug…?

Boug-bounty? 🙏

Using it would be faster if it was in a single rule filter in addition to the normal filters, because there you likely do some other filtering as well. So for example for door rule you would only have to check if it is in the selection basket for all the doors, not for all the components.

Of course it is cumbersome to add the property to all subrules, maybe it is not suitable for your case either.

One alternative is to have a custom rule. A custom rule that returns an issue for all components in the selection basket, or all components not in the basket. Then this rule can be used as the gatekeeper rule.

Hi @naveedzargar ,

I’ve shared one example how to check this in this thread, you could test if that would give you correct results: https://society.solibri.com/topic/289/gatekeeper-check/

This should be able to be set in the “Coordinate Base” setting of the IFC Export Setup in the later versions of Revit. In the earlier versions, the IFC export was always set to survey point (shared coordinates).

If things aren’t lining up, you may need to publish or acquire coordinates in your project.

You also are able to move a model in Solibri by right-clicking it in the Model Tree and clicking Move or Rotate Models: https://help.solibri.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500006891481-Moving-and-Rotating-Models

@sander-eikelboom said in Free space in front of components can be halved?:

Maby it will help you to find the decompossed elements?

In my model there are curtain walls. I surch for window components that had decomposed forwards curtain walls.

Mybe this will help.

Curtain walls:

windows with decomposed forward curtain walls.

Hi Sander,

I have tried to recreate this situation by creating a curtain wall with a custom window in it (frame and glass panel), and using your settings for the ruleset.
If I understand correctly from your post, by using this decomposes rule, the check should be able to differentiate between the window frame and the window panel, being able to only search for the window panel , for example?

To be fair, I do not yet understand what the result should be by using this decompose rule there. Could you please maybe post the “Results” information and the “Relations” information here?

I have made a few pictures of what I have made, the results however dont seem to differentiate between the individual parts of the window, rather still the window as an entire element:

Thank you for your help with this

@lauri-luoma Thank you!! Can i set this as an accepted soution or anything?
