   Hi,

   Quick question: Is it possible to save the view settings of e.g. snapping and the move gizmo in Ifc?

   

   ->

   

   Its currently only saved in the .blend file, but maybe there is a way to quickly/automatically load them from previous session? It's getting a bit annoying to do every day every time I have to reopen, especially if working in multiple files.

   Thanks!

   I don't think you can save it to the ifc file currently (after all, it should be platform agnostic) but you can use the Blednder way - change the default file:

   

   (create an empty file with the default settings, change it to your prefered ones and update the defaults. Be careful, there's no way to undo this.)

   Awesome, this works perfectly! These changes are small, so I won't worry about undoing.

   Well you can store them in a custom Pset on your IfcProject object I guess and retrieve them later by parsing your Pset. I don't know if it's a correct way to do it though
