Methods

Public constructor Create(AOwner: TComponent); override;

This item has no description.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 2983).

Public destructor Destroy; override;

This item has no description.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 2984).

Public function BuildNode(const Mapping: TCastleIfcMapping): TTransformNode; override;

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 2985).

Public procedure AddMeshRepresentation( const Context: TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext; const Coordinates: array of TVector3; const Indexes: array of Integer; const Solid: Boolean = true);

Add mesh representation to the given product.

The mesh is expressed as a set of 3D points (Coordinates) and indexes to these coordinates (Indexes) that determine polygons. The indexes are 0-based and can be separated by -1 to delimit polygons.

See examples/ifc/ for an example usage of this routine to define walls and floors.

Parameters

Context: Geometric representation context instance, usually TIfcProject.ModelContext (for 3D models) or TIfcProject.PlanContext (for 2D floor plans).

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3001).

Public procedure AddLinesRepresentation( const Context: TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext; const Coordinates: array of TVector3);

Add lines representation to the given product. Each pair of points in Coordinates defines a line.

Parameters

Context: Geometric representation context instance, usually TIfcProject.ModelContext (for 3D models) or TIfcProject.PlanContext (for 2D floor plans).

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3014).

Public procedure AddBoxRepresentation( const Context: TIfcGeometricRepresentationContext; const Box: TBox3D);

Add box representation to the given product.

Right now, the Box is transformed into a proper mesh representation, so this is just equivalent to calling AddMeshRepresentation with the 8 box corners and proper indexes to define 6 box sides.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3023).

Public function TransformSupported: Boolean;

Does ObjectPlacement express a 3D transformation we can handle and Translation reliably gets and sets it.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3029).

Public procedure SetTransformRelativeTo(const OtherProduct: TIfcProduct);

Make Translation of this product relative to a given different product. This sets TIfcObjectPlacement.PlacementRelTo underneath.

Source: scene/load/ifc/castleifc_ifc_standard_types.inc (line 3070).

Properties

Public property Translation: TVector3 read GetTranslation write SetTranslation;

Translation of this product.

Using this property when TransformSupported is True is most intuitive. It can then reliably get and set 3D translation. The translation is relative to the parent or to other object (determined by TIfcObjectPlacement.PlacementRelTo, can be set using SetTransformRelativeTo.)
Using this property when TransformSupported is False is still possible.
The interpretation depends on the configuration of the ObjectPlacement. E.g. it may specify that it's a 2D transformation (so setting a translation may change it to 3D, and right now it may not preserve 2D rotation). In general, IFC offers various possibilities to define the placement of an object, relative to various parents.
If in doubt, just don't use this property when TransformSupported is False. Instead, in that case (TransformSupported = False), investigate and change the ObjectPlacement properties.

When TCastleIfcMapping.OptimizeAssumingOneMapping then this is optimized. Changing this property immediately updates the relevant X3D graph, without the need to call TCastleIfcMapping.Update. This makes changing translation really instant, no need to call TCastleIfcMapping.Update so it doesn't analyze what changed.
