Hi, I'm working on a wall panel placer tool that puts wall panels into a wall. I'm wondering whether (for calculations) is it possible to explode or extract these wall panels into standalone (GDL or not GDL) objects. The goal is to have an ifc export...

Hi, in a Wall Addon project I tried to store data in a parameter dictionary. if the object's subtype is an ordinary "Model element", everything worked If the same object's subtype was modified to be a "Wall (Accessory)", it doesn't write the dictiona...

Hi, I have a GDL libpart that I develop, and I'm about to check whether listing works for it. This is a wall accessory placing wall panels into a wall. The old style listing works using components. My problem is how to do this using interactive sched...

Hi, I'm about to work on a new template file, essentially by decimating/simpifying an old one (and later growing it). My problem is that i can remove attributes that I don't need but cannot reindex so that there shouldn't be any gaps between them. If...

Hi, I guess this is a common issue, but what happens, if a computer get is physically unavailable (like destroyed, data purged or user is on vacation etc.) and one needs the Software key downloaded to that computer. There are many possibilities when ...

I can define a surface having a chosen name in GDL and then assign it to an object, and by assigning different building materials to every panel, I can make them different IfcBuildingElementParts. This way, I can deliver (only one piece of) info that...

I've checked it and works. The problem here is that obviously this way we loose attached information (just getting the pure geometry). The Building material trick works the same way (if we assign every panel a different building material, they become...

At the end of the day I have to make it possible to make a schedule based on the ifc export. (3rd party software makes it based on the export). It's possible that i start with a "prepared" pln file with many enough building materials (named like "BM0...

Problem is that in GDL I cannot define Building Material afaik.

I mean for calculating in a different software i want to access panels one by one, somehow. Another approach would be to place panels one by one using an addon but it's out of scope, too expensive. So I'm searching for a "cheap" and simple alternativ...
