to avoid issues importing csvs that used it to extract correct predefined type
Example warning:
WARNING. Assigning 'predefined_type' is not yet supported. Skipping value 'ELECTRICACTUATOR' for element: '#89=IfcActuator('1RjCen6XL6WAdhz7HumLFU',$,'Actuator.002',$,$,#179,$,$,.ELECTRICACTUATOR.)'.
In IFC it's possible for a property set to be assigned to multiple elements and which may lead to confusing behaviour when you edit a pset on one element and other element seems to get edited too.
Which makes it worse is that that it is possible that some software is might be doing this unintentionally when exporting IFC (as some sort of optimization as storing 1 is more optimal than n copies of it).
So now there are some tools in Bonsai and in IfcOpenShell to handle the shared psest:
1) Indication that property is shared - https://imgur.com/a/9dd3jST (similar to how Blender indicates ID data-block users). You can click on it to "unshare" the pset - a new copy for the pset will be created and it's going to be linked only to the active object.
2) api pset.unshare_pset method that does the same. And util.element.get_elements_using_pset method that encapsulates schema differences and different approaches for occurrences/types.
3) ifcpatch recipe 'UnsharePsets' that's making all property sets in the IFC file to have just 1 element that's using them. You can limit the affected elements by providing query.
ifcpatch recipe is also available in Bonsai - https://i.imgur.com/aOCx7HI.png
edited pyproject.toml as `disableBytesTypePromotions` is disabled by default in non-strict mode and type checker intrerprets `bytes` as `bytes | memoryview | bytearray` which is deprecated in https://peps.python.org/pep-0688/#no-special-meaning-for-bytes
This tricked me today, the "XAxis" and "YAxis" vectors are from different perspectives (yikes!). XAxis is from the perspective of grid north, and YAxis is from the perspective of project north. I'm following this convention because that's what buildingSMART docs do but just FYI they serve two different purposes!
