Is it possible to add an EPset value to "bulk" selected elemets?
I am using BB 240510.
I would like to "bulk" add the “EPSet_Status” to each element in my model.
When selecting a number of elements and adding the “EPSet_Status” option to the selected elements it give the option to add the “EPSet_Status” then when deselect the elements and selecting one element the “EPSet_Status” value is lost. (Only the orinal selected element is allocated with the "EPSet_Status" value).
I also tried, “Costing and Scheduling” with the “Status” option to select all “No Status” elements and then going to “Object Information” the “EPSet_Status” is not a selectable.
Can somebody show how a “EPSet_Status” can be added in “bulk” by selecting a number of elements at once?
Thanks in advance

Thanks Theo,
I noted that both "EPSet_Status" and "PSet_WallCommon" has a status, is it possible to make it an automaic in-put value for the one to the other?
not sure i followed that question. Can you rephrase?
I will try.
The IFCWall Class can have two data-field status', one in "EPSet_Status" and one in "PSet_WallCommon-Status", would it be possible that when a "EPSet_Status" value is selected that it automatcally inputs into "PSet_WallCommon" data-field-Status equal to "EPSet_Status" data-field-Status?
Not currently, that i know of, but anything is possible. :)
I checked to see if EPSet_Status was in the IFC docs, it wasn't. I see that EPSet_Status is a feature that BlenderBIM Add-on added on its own in 2023 Sep.

Yes, there was this discussion:

Tldr: many elements can not be handled the standard way, that's why we have the custom epset_status.
That would explain the EPSet and not PSet, I am glad the EPSet_Status exists, am I correct is noting that it would be an IFC custom PSet? Would it be possible to have this custom PSet automatic transfer the value to an IFC status PSet? My be this would resolve the lost/changed “EPSet_Status” values under, “Costing and Scheduling-Status”
