[BlenderBIM] Openining don't appear

why does the window opening not appear? The file seems to be right!

  • I can replicate your problem, but it seems to only happen in Xbim.
    I tried 5 other ifc viewers, and the window showed up correctly.
    Could it be Xbim?

  • in fact, in the us.bim viewer it did not appear, but in the bimcollab.zoom and in the ifcopenhell viewer they did:


    Is it because the opening has tessellation representation?

  • Maybe try to update the mesh representation of the opening as an arbitrary extrusion in BlenderBIM ?

    how do I do it?

  • Yeah unfortunately some viewers don't support tessellation representations. It's a shortcoming in their implementation.

    See relevant bugs https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/issues/2499 and https://github.com/xBimTeam/XbimGeometry/issues/399

    If you want to make the opening an arbitrary extrusion, you can Alt-O with the wall selected to toggle openings (with the BIM Tool activated), then select the bright blue opening, in the Mesh Properties tab, click on "Update Mesh As Arbitrary Extrusion".
