We need to have a displayed property in the rebar. I think you understand my initial reply and need for information. Allplan is aware of this, but AFAIK they are not going to change this behaviour.įreeCAD (should) and Allplan (for sure does) do export the rebars as IfcSweptDiskSolid” Thus in FreeCAD ifc importer it is possible to merge materials with the same name and color (If not one would end up with thousands of materials). Different colors for material and shape.īTW: Allplan has ever written an own material for each object. Since I implemented this I have seen more file from other CAD vendors too which shows the same problem. If they are going to fix it, who knows.įreeCAD does shown a log message on import of such case. The ifc development management knows about the problem. I do not know about BricsCAD.ĪFAIK there are two possibilities to give a color to a object:Īllplan for sure has a bug and writes for one object different colors in the material and in the shape. Solibri does show this information, CollabZoom not (support is aware of the problem). Thus the diameter is not a property inside a property set but a geometry information of the shape. FreeCAD (should) and Allplan (for sure does) do export the rebars as IfcSweptDiskSolid.
