That way I can easily see the difference between all MEP and HVAC disciplins with a pen set.<BR /> <BR /> Is there a way or method for doing this or can this only be done by the part that exports the IFC?</T></DIV> Tue, 01 Apr 2014 13:40:34 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Pens-of-imported-IFC-models/m-p/151378#M16971 Anonymous 2014-04-01T13:40:34Z Re: Pens of imported IFC models https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Pens-of-imported-IFC-models/m-p/151379#M16972 Bump!
