IFC export - Choose if a parameter is exported as Type or Instance

IFC export - Choose if a parameter is exported as Type or Instance

When I setup a Custom IFC property set, I would like to be able to choose if a parameter is exported to the instance or the type object, regardless of the way the parameter is setup in Revit.

 

Before Revit 2023 it was possible to set this up at the Property set level, if the property set was set to Instance all exported parameters would be set on the instance in the IFC, even Revit type parameters. Since 2023 all parameters are exported as they are setup in Revit. We have software we use down the line to edit data in the IFC file (for example to set Manufacturer data) which now can not be properly used because the properties in the IFC are on the Type instead of on the Instance.
