BlenderBIM, issue in creating custom properties

  1. _ by _B_ on 8 Aug 2022, edited 11 Aug 2022 #

    Hello everyone!

    I am enjoying so much BlenderBIM, in my opinion is better than lots of BIM authoring tools.

    but there is an issue I can not solve.

    I would like to create custom Pset, and I am able to do it, but when I create them I can just edit the name of PSet or the value of properties, I need to modify the property name.

    as you can notice on the red line.

    I have seen there are sample templates for PSET in the Scene Properties tab, but I can not figure out how to use this for object property sets.

    can someone of you help me please??

    thank you in advance

    Try...

    • Go to folder C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\3.1\scripts\addons\blenderbim\bim\data\pset or similar path

    • find Sample_Template.ifc and make a copy of it and rename to something else.

    • open blender

    • go `IFC Project Set Templates' in the scene properties

    • open pset file that you copied above.

    • add/modify as needed.

    • save template .. this saves to that IFC file.

    • close blender, and then open again to make that new property available for assignment.

    It would be nice if is not necessary to restart Blender, but it works!

    So thank you so much theoryshaw!!
