I got an IFCexport from Revit and hoped to turn off one floor slab to expose the storey below with walls an some details.
Unfortunately all floor slabs in a Revit model is exported to same ustn-level.
Anyone know of some trick I can tip the Revit guys so the export puts the different floor slabs in different ustn-levels.
(thought I posted this a few hours ago - if the appearance is delayed - sorry for taking bandwidth)
Is my wording above correct 'in' a ustn-level but 'on' a level in a building?
Haven't tried that yet, but try to create a group which includes all elements, and then remove the objects you don't want to see. Now make a building view of that.
Sure Andreas, same part, dgs and ustn-level. But in ABD in different Models.
So I can turn off display for a slab in floor 2 to see floor 1 below. Or make floor 2 transparent.
In the ifc I've got all floor slabs are on same level.
But I discovered that the setting 'Ignore Story Containment' -if off- splits the geometry to separate files!
So, if the Revit file is done with correct settings, it seems I get what I want.

OK, 43640 was a defect against File > Open IFC that seems to have since been fixed.
Okay...but that's not in the .747 release, right?
The defect states it was fixed in MicroStation build 8.11.9.528 so it should be resolved in ABD .747. Just to be sure... browse to your C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\AECOsimBuildingDesigner V8i Ss5\AECOsimBuildingDesigner folder, right-click on the ustation.dll file and choose properties - what's the build number in the Details tab?
That one has 08.11.09.584.
