Example of IfcTextLiteralWithExtent

R by Rick_Brice on 31 Mar 2025, edited 1 Apr 2025 #

I'm looking for an example of IfcTextLiteralWithExtent.

I have defined survey points with IfcAnnotation per Concept Template 4.1.7.1.2.5.

I'm attempting to add a text label with IfcAnnotation per Concept Template 4.1.7.1.2.1

My file is attached and is pass the bSI Validation Service checks.

The text is not showing up in Bonsai.

Any ideas?

I think the only way you can see text, or any type of IfcAnnotation, is through a drawing.

Can you please help file a bug?

Bug filed.

I'm also interested in seeing some examples because I don't understand all the attributes of IfcTextLiateralWithExtent and IfcTextStyle
