"IFC Export Settings" (default) dialog box

Export IFC Data function / IFC Export Settings (advanced) dialog box

You can use this dialog box to specify the default settings for exporting IFC data. IFC 2x3, IFC 4 or IFC 4.3 formats are supported here. You can configure them via the pre-defined exchange profiles.

Note: Where required, you can also specify additional custom settings by expanding the dialog box using the Settings button (see IFC Export Settings (advanced) dialog box).

Drawing files

Selecting drawing files currently loaded

When the button is pressed, the drawing files that are currently open, open in edit mode or open in reference mode are exported when you use the Export IFC Data function (display: The current fileset selection is used.).

If the button is not pressed, the drawing files selected via the Select drawing file dialog box (see Select button) are exported (display: TB numbers of the selected drawing files).

Select

Opens the Select drawing file dialog box, which you can use to configure a different drawing file selection for the export than the one you currently have when selecting the Export IFC Data function.
