CSV Export from multiple models | future patch?

    Please find attached the relevant documentation for the updated Export. Please take a look. Maybe we can add this to the PR as well.

    IMHO I guess there are two types of users: the ones that like simplicity and clear UIs and the ones that like lots of features/options. I think I tend to be more in the second group :) Anyhow as you wish we can keep it or remove it. Maybe there should be a global switch in the addon settings to turn those ones on/off:

    Thanks!

    hi @falken10vdl

    impressive job, so much in so little time, truly amazing

    one question: can it work with both activated? I mean from memory together from linked models or external files

    the pdf looks very good, something to learn from!

    very much appreciated

    @steverugi It is either one. However I have put in the following note:

    !

    So basically you can just add to the list the own file in memory. Just make sure to save before running the export to make sure that it gets all the latest done.

    Thanks!

    @falken10vdl well, nothing special, it unlink and relink an ifc linked model so it can be updated "on the fly", look at here (https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/blob/e8b74245ce8941f310c7c28c700129b79114dccc/src/bonsai/bonsai/bim/module/project/operator.py#L1427)

    I think that "a new process" (with eye icon) and "sync" (refresh) have different purposes: the first one could be useful if i want to open the model in a new dedicated window and the second one could be useful if i want to stay in the same session and update the file without open it.

    So, maybe, the "eye" icon is useful under the panel Project setup -> Links near the existing ones icons (Reload link, Unload link, etc...) and the "sync" icon is useful in the Spreadsheet import/export panel...no? What do you think?

    Btw, the work you have done is great!

    Thanks @Massimo ! As I commented above I like to have lots of icons even if they are redundant :) but I agree that maybe that is not a popular preference... so I would say we put whatever you guys with AEC experience think is best. :)
