Generate element ID numbers based on their floor number and space location. For examples, manually label a space "03" on the first floor, becomes "103". A door that is manually labeled "A", opening into room 104 becomes "104A"
The AccuDraw compass is rotated to the element snapped to. Very often not to view xy. So the x and y fields in the AccuDraw dialog are not view xy. Very unintuitive. Like in the attached video. The AccuDraw compass has a red and green marking for ...
Option to ungroup components placed as array parametric solid
Filing this idea on behalf of B+S AG | Stefan Schöni. While using the command "Array parametric solid feature", the components are 'grouped' - this is still the case in the IFC file. This means that no evaluations can be made because, for example,...
Currently it is not possible to create dedicated "Footing" / foundation elements in OBD. The workaround is to use Beams (for strip foundation) or Columns (for pad foundation). However it's not an ideal situation. Proconcrete of course does offer t...
Special Node/Option for Full Itemtype support in Generative Components. Users can assign Itemtype library to already available nodes (eg. Line, Solid etc.) and user can fill the properties by either text or assign excel spreadsheet.
OBD's Profile tool is quite powerful. A lot of building elements are linear and can be modeled this way. Mstn's new Perforator tool is also powerful as it complements solid modeling by providing the 'negative' of solids ie voids. Together, both fu...
Dataset.cfg variable MS_DGNLIBLIST_LINESTYLES need to be set to '<'
OBD 2023 using the ISO19650 dataset, the Dataset.cfg has the variable MS_DGNLIBLIST_LINESTYLES = $(TFDIR)Dgnlib\Linestyles,dgnlib With it set the equals, it will not read any similar MS_DGNLIBLIST_LINESTYLES variables that has been set to either a...
When we have file A active and B and C referenced, selecting B and using Exchange is simply equivalent to opening file B. The ideal function would be to open file B with A and C referenced.
