Show what you have ... Best to put it on your github (Doyou have one?) As a start we could make PRs. If needed you could give others write access to the repo. Ah, this is the misunderstanding! I linked it in an earlier post, so I wasn't aware you missed it: https://github.com/haraldg/Test_IFC_Impor...

Hi! I'm trying to cut a face with a solid, but the result is not what I expect: It extends outside the original face. See the attached file. Since there is a warning about boolean operations on faces, I also tried extruding it first. However this even throws an exception: 14:14:28 <Exception> Inters...

IMHO most important is to use fixed import parameter. This has been implemented a few weeks ago. They can be parsed in latest importIFC methods. Yes, my code uses that. Actually the main point of the WB at the moment is: You can create reference files, which include the importer settings used to cr...

... I will have a bare bones version of the Test IFC Importer WB ready by the weekend. ... Any progress here ... ? After posting https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?p=417640#p411933 people disagreed whether the WB approach is useful, so it went a bit down on my TODO list. I'll happily discus...

Yes, looks good to me. Care to submit a PR?

This was a totally unexpected output to me, expecially to see that those shapes are valid. What do you think? Hm, how did you check that they are valid? Do properties like Volume, Area etc return plausible results? I guess, we will need somebody, who actually understands opencascade, to fill in the...

I don't have fully understood how replaceShape is supposed to work. I was for example not able to make it work with Faces or Edges, but just with Vertexes.. and this leads to strange results sometimes, as you were working on the Mesh rather than on the Shape itself! If you replace something other t...

This is always the same problem, SWH3D, like many BIM apps, makes a lot of assumptions such as: All walls are single-segment, all walls are straight, all walls are vertical, all floors are horizontal, all ceilings are horizontal... Many of these assumptions could easily be false in FreeCAD. This is...

The documentation is somewhat lacking. For your reference here is an example function, where I got it to work. def snap_by_resize_Zlength(shape, target): replacements = [] candidates = sorted(shape.OuterWire.Edges, key=lambda e: e.BoundBox.ZLength)[-2:] for e in candidates: d = get_distance_vector(e...

What's your intention with this? To modify general Part::Feature objects in the same way as is possible with Draft objects. Of course having a parametric object like from Draft would be preferable, but you have to work with what you have. :-) I've never seen this used; in most cases if you want to ...
