IFC Spatial Containment - Multi select and assign floor to files.
When exporting IFC and when working with projects that contain multiple buildings, there is no single way to assign the reference files to a single building. Every reference within the file path has to be selected seperately to assign the building...
Can we add an option within the Catalog Editor to expose the file name that the duplicate parts reside in. Within the Catalog editor, there are tow columns (left and right). in the left hand side you see just one duplicate part. within the section...
Currently the "Create space - Flood Area" only works on geometry in the active model. I'd be nice to also be able to use it with referenced geometry. See also Idea 138 - Create wall from space in Referenced File. Making this possible would probabl...
We would like to specify the units with a suffix in the attributes, e.g. "Schichtstaerke_[mm]". Unfortunately, square brackets and other special characters are not allowed. We ask you to program this so that special characters are also allowed. Wi...
Schedule wall layers/components - display the actual wall family/part
In OBD > 10 you can schedule a single wall and wall assembly. However, what you cannot do is schedule the wall assembly layers aka sub walls and maintain their real family/part names. OBD will schedule them as 'Default' walls rather than the ac...
As there is an increase awareness on carbon emission and a need to calculate the embedded carbon rate per volume of material assigned in the model, it should be time for this parameter to be included and rate set based on standard EC rate. Current...
Floor Manager and Grid tools should recognise Coordinate Systems and enable defined building locations
On large projects, with multiple (& repeated) buildings it is common to model the building around the file origin, and then reference/place into actual location. The current system does not recognise if the refernce is moved, so the floor mana...

When DG schema is changed some tools (incl. Edit Properties, IFC Export) do no work proper until user manually run DG Upgrade tool.Same time user has no indication he needs to upgrade. It may happen when user opens old dgn with newer OBD version o...
Addressing overheating due to solar gain is increasingly a big problem for building designers, and is now also a statutory requirement. OBD/OBES/Hevacomp is well placed to provide an analytical design tool that provides quick feedback to the facad...
