- :ref:`reference/topbar:new ifc project` (:kbd:`Ctrl` + :kbd:`N`): Provides convenient presets to create new IFC projects.

- :ref:`reference/topbar:open recent ifc project`: See recently opened IFC models.
|
||||
- **Save IFC Project** (:kbd:`Shift` + :kbd:`S`): saves the ``.ifc`` file, optionally launching a file browse dialog if the file has not yet been saved.
|
||||
- **Save IFC Project As**: launches a file browse dialog to save the ``.ifc``. This location is remembered for future saves.
|

- **Revert IFC Project**: Discards all unsaved changes and reloads the currently loaded IFC model.

|

.. warning::
|
||||
|
||||
Other menu items, such as ``New`` or ``Open...`` are part of Blender. These
|
||||
create, open, save, and interact with Blender files, not IFC models. If you
|
||||
are using Bonsai to work with IFC natively, using these functions may
|
||||
damage your IFC model. For more information, see
|
||||
:ref:`guides/troubleshooting:saving and loading blend files`.

|location| Topbar |>| File |>| New IFC Project (:kbd:`Shift` + :kbd:`N`)
|
||||
|
||||
- New Metric (m) Project: Creates a new IFC project using meters as the base unit.
|
||||
- New Metric (mm) Project: Creates a new IFC project using millimeters as the base unit.
|
||||
- New Imperial (ft) Project: Creates a new IFC project using feet as the base unit.
|
||||
- New Demo Project: Creates a new IFC project with pre-populated demo content.
|
||||
- New Project Wizard: Creates a default Blender project (including the default cube)
|
||||
and opens the Scene Properties > Project Overview > Project Info tab.
|
||||
This allows users to customize their project settings before creation.
|
||||
Clicking the "Create Project" button in this panel will delete the default cube and set up the new IFC project with the specified settings.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
These options provide flexibility in setting up new IFC projects,
|
||||
allowing users to choose between quick starts with predefined units
|
||||
or a more customizable approach through the Project Wizard.
|
||||
Provides convenient presets to create new IFC projects.
