Hello all!
In the project I'm currently working on I want to export an IFC model from a part of the model. For this I use a 3D view with a filter based on a parameter value and a section box to crop the view. In the model there are a couple of areas I also would like to export to IFC. We are running in a problem: when I use a section box no Area are exported. But when I uncheck the section box all the Areas are exported beside the fact that half of them should be filter away. My conclusion: with or without a filter but with a section box no Areas are exported to IFC.
Any thought on this matter? Why are the Areas not exported when I use a section box (same for scope box on/off)?
Already tested: IFC exporter plug-in latest version, check/uncheck IFC setting "export rooms in 3d views", Revit 2019 & 2020, Exporting from plan view, area plan view. With and without a filter.

Hi @Anonymous ,
We are having the same issues when trying to export "selected" Areas through 3D views into IFC (scopebox/sectionbox method). In our case we use the area floor plan view, change the VT to just show areas and then export a different IFC.
This is not ideal specially if you have to do it every level, but it works. We use it as a test for info output in IFC, since normally the whole model is exported.
Rooms and Area's are a issue with exporting to IFC.
Exporting from floorplan (visible items only) -> only rooms/areas intersection cutplan plan will be exported.
Exporting from 3D with export Rooms from 3D -> All or None.
Workaround: Use a 3D, add a project instance parameter to the Rooms "IfcExportAs" (would use a different one from the user families)
For all the Rooms/Area's you don't want to export use as value for the "IfcExportAs" = DONTEXPORT
All others leave the value empty
Ifc export will skip these areas/rooms
I use a own written app to fill the value automatically based on workset visible state in 3D view.

Hi Michel,
Good point. We are use the DontExport function with most projects but not on Rooms/Areas.
A small Dynamo script will do the job to fill in the "DontExport" with a click of a mouse button.
It works for me. Not the ideal solution but it's good enough
.
What did I do: Use "DontExport" for all the rooms/areas I don't want to export. Next I hide all the element in a 3D view (regular hide or filter). Export to IFC with "Export only elements visiuble in view" and "Export rooms in 3D views" checked. Note: do not use a scopebox/section box for hiding elements in 3D. It will work for Rooms but you don't export the Areas.
Thanks Michel ![]()
Hi everyone
There is a simple way that is export the cropsectionbox to SAT --> import the SAT into AutoCAD Architecture --> Export to IFC.
Thank you!
