[BlenderBIM] Door tag for both a 'Type Mark' and 'Instance Mark'?

edited September 2022 in General

Does anyone have a workflow to create a door tag for both a 'Type Mark' and an 'Instance Mark'?
The example below, the door instance has 100 as the Pset_DoorCommon.Reference parameter, and the door type has T1 as the Pset_DoorCommon.Reference parameter.
Using {{Pset_DoorCommon.Reference}} in the IFC smart tag, only shows the instance value 100. How would you create a tag to show T1?

  • I haven't been able to get a 'door tag' to show as a tag, but I imagine you can set the type mark as an attribute like 'tag'?
    Like:
    new {{Pset_DoorCommon.Reference}} \n {{Tag}} ?

    In his demo file @Moult uses:
    {{Name}}\n{{type.Name}}

    Would that be useful?

  • Here's the demo file for comparison

  • Use type to reference the type, so type.Pset_DoorCommon.Reference should work.

    However, {{Name}}\n{{type.Name}} is the correct location to put this. The "type mark" should be stored in the type.Name and "instance mark" should be stored in the Name itself. The Reference property was a legacy thing from IFC2X3 for vendors who didn't support types, and finally got removed in IFC4.3.
