 I am looking for the best practice/workflow for achieving a BIM reach model. The ultimate goal is that every 3D element should have instance data attached. I will be using custom definitions and I can create catalogue types and items as per</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: BIM Workflow - Infrastructure</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/714867?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 03 Jun 2022 11:31:23 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:b65c35c6-8058-4e36-b74d-f3df2690442a</guid><dc:creator>Alifur Mandal</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hello Jaimin,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To answer your 1st question: Definitely GC can be a useful tool in these cases. The solids can be filtered using the Level name and in that solid node itself attach the datagroup and populate the datagroups properties. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But inside OBD also we have the same query creation using the Explorer. Have a look at the attached video. You can save those queries as an xml file and then later on use them on other files for the filter purposes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I hope this helps you get an idea.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think I have answered my question for Cell. Maybe in the previous version of OBD, it wasn&amp;#39;t working quite well but I discovered when I place the cell with datagroup property attached to it, I won&amp;#39;t be able to see it straight away, I need to drop the cell to geometry so it becomes a live element in the model and I will be able to see datagroup property for the element.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, it would be great to get some suggestions on attaching an instance data to each element in the model by some kind of automated process by filtering the elements by level name or colour would be good. I am also looking for an opportunity to use the script with Key-in to attach instance data. Is there a key-in for that?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: BIM Workflow - Infrastructure</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/714843?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 03 Jun 2022 07:45:13 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:2e32a9bf-be72-46a4-b9df-9e12ff0f65f5</guid><dc:creator>Shreya Basu</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Jaimin,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Can you please provide me with some sample 3D cell files which you have created for your project?&lt;br /&gt;Here is the link where you can upload it,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://bentley.sharefile.com/r-rae0c0115f2634f85ba47fe4f9b90e6b4"&gt;https://bentley.sharefile.com/r-rae0c0115f2634f85ba47fe4f9b90e6b4&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regards,&lt;br /&gt;Shreya&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: BIM Workflow - Infrastructure</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/714842?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 03 Jun 2022 07:32:05 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:9125bbfd-b04d-4d4e-b46a-8b072fcd356b</guid><dc:creator>Thomas Voghera</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I see.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And the Part-Component system doesn&amp;#39;t work because of the complicated geometries.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: BIM Workflow - Infrastructure</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/714841?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 03 Jun 2022 07:23:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:8812b009-086e-4f44-b83a-db23c79b508e</guid><dc:creator>Jaimin Patel</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Thomas,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I work on major infrastructure projects that involve modelling bridge beams, fences, abutments, retaining walls etc. all custom shapes and sizes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Interesting approach.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t have a solution, but curious about what you are designing?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not ordinary buildings, right?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
