Export with properties

Currently when exporting an IFC model from OpenPlant Modeler, many of the properties aren't exported.

Please add an option that the IFC model will include all the data from the OPM model.

This is very helpful for exporting to a 3rd party software.

Regards,

    @Waqas, on Bentley's OpenPlant datasheet, it claims interoperability with other plant design software, "without the need for proprietary interfaces". How this achieved today for users that don't use iTwin Sync? Is your data sheet inaccurate?

    Additionally, the workflow for using iTwin to export IFC is long and convoluted. It is not possible to export individual files to IFC, only a large, federated model. The processing times are also quite long.

    Hi, Unfortunately currently we do not plan to implement export from within DGN at the moment.

    However, IFC export can be done from cloud based tool (iTwin Sync) or OpenPlant Modeler CE in PlantSight integrated mode.
