https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/IFC-export-problem-with-2D-geometry/m-p/284253#M37255 Hello,<BR /> <BR /> As far as I know Solibri is a pretty "forgiving" Viewer, so if it can't open a project because of an error, that may be pretty corrupted. It can easily be the export.<BR /> If you know which elements cause this, could you send over a simplified project file (a PLA that only contains that element) to me in a PM, so that we can take a look and see if it is an ARCHICAD bug?<BR /> If you could also include which Translator you are using, and an IFC file that is already faulty, that would be very useful as well.<BR /> <BR /> Thanks, Mon, 23 Apr 2018 08:08:28 GMT Daniel Kovacs 2018-04-23T08:08:28Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/IFC-export-problem-with-2D-geometry/m-p/284252#M37254 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><R>When exporting a 2D symbolic object to IFC4 MVD Reference View, I get an error that the object is missing geometry in the Session Report:<BR /> <BLOCKQUOTE>"The following elements could not be exported due to missing geometry:<BR /> 0gjDtMzeu3IuUIo7UvWsun"</BLOCKQUOTE> Not really unexpected but as a consequence the file cannot be read in Solibri anymore.

I have been creating geometry representation with ifcsphere and ifc revolved areas (Geometry Gym), which solibri couldn't, apparently, read, while bimcollab Zoom did.<BR /> <BR /> I must admit, that Ii was surprised since I also had the idea of solibri model viewer being pretty capable...

They had no 3D geometry and cause this error. I'm trying to recreate, but without success, alas.
