    • Apply CIM Coordinate :

      • If Geographic Coordinate is set, the option is enabled.

    • Adjust distant objects (Ignore IFCSITE Data)

      • If Geographic Coordinate is not set, the option is enabled.

      • If the object is at a long distance, it is imported by adjusting it near the modeling origin.

      • In this process, the coordinate data in IFC is ignored.

Note

Objects are created in the same position as the original coordinates of the Parasolid file. When the objects are not visible on the screen field of view, you can zoom to fit the model with the action below.
