IFC properties to zonestamp (request)

rozky — Fri, 04 Aug 2017 07:39:19 GMT

Hi
I'm trying to modify zone stamp to automate ApartmentID - stApartmentID = IFCproperties(zome(ID))
I looked at http://gdl.graphisoft.com/reference-guide/request-options
but my gdl skill is not so good and i cant figure it out so I want to ask for help please.

Yes Rozky... you have to map your IFC property to get the combined name.
Unfortunately you can combine texts but you cannot make mathematics yet ... we hope in the future

Thank you for reply.
Yes I did it(IFC mapping) problem was to show it in zone stamp.
I finally got it out. I do not know it is clever solution but it work.
This link was very helpful http://gdl.graphisoft.com/tips-and-tricks/display-properties-with-labels

Thank you all

Alemanda: Such requests work in labels, markers and zone stamps without problems.

(I recently modified 21 DW marker to get the fire rating not from object parameter but the properties)

Yes ... Through GDL you can request that IFC data, I know.

The lack of proper documentation with examples is GDL's bottleneck...
getting better: some useful examples show on gdl.graphisoft.com
but regarding this topic the documentation is misleading - saying that it works in labels only...(should be either label-like objects or specifying the 3 possibilities).

Best Regards,
