Ports Bonsai's LengthMeasurement onto WgpuViewportWindow as a new
WgpuLengthMeasurement class. Each LMB appends a world-space pick point
and the readout adapts to the running count:
1 pt → laser-measure: coplanar-patch BFS on the click's surface
projects every patch vertex into the surface's own tangent
basis to get face extents (X/Y/Z bars dashed in world space),
plus ENH coords for the picked point, plus a vertical
raycast for floor/ceiling distance on horizontal surfaces.
2 pts → distance A→B + axis-coloured ΔX/ΔY/ΔZ stair-step + dashed
perpendicular projection when both picks landed on
near-parallel surfaces.
3 pts → angle at middle vertex + triangle area + perimeter.
4+ pts → polygon area via best-fit-plane shoelace (Jacobi-3x3
eigendecomp inline; no Eigen dep) or fan-triangulated
fallback for non-planar loops, plus closed-loop perimeter.
Backspace / Del removes the last point; Esc / L again exits.
Dependencies layered in:
- pickMeshLocalAt now refines the AABB-coarse pickSurfaceAt hit into a
real triangle hit via Möller-Trumbore against the picked instance's
CPU mesh shadow. Without this the BFS seeds with whatever triangle
is closest to the bounding-box corner — producing patches and
extents shaped like the AABB instead of the surface.
- meshLocalToGlobal: applies the instance's placement_transformation
only (no per-model CoordinateOperation in wgpu yet). ENH equals
IFC-world for non-federated loads, which is what the minimal viewer
handles.
- raycast: brute-force world-AABB cull + Möller-Trumbore over the CPU
mesh shadow. Used by the laser-measure ceiling/floor distance.
- ToolMode gains Length; click handler routes plain/Alt LMB through
onLengthPick, Backspace through onLengthBackspace. Marquee-arm is
gated off in Length mode.
Volume HUD now shows "Volume: 0.0000 m³ (0 objects)" the moment V is
pressed, matching how A primes "Area: 0.0000 m²" — gives the user a
visible cue the tool is active before any selection.

IfcOpenShell
IfcOpenShell is an open source (LGPL) software library for working with Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). Complete parsing support is provided for IFC2x3 TC1, IFC4 Add2 TC1, IFC4x1, IFC4x2, and IFC4x3 Add2. Extensive geometric support is implemented for the IFC releases IFC2x3 TC1 and IFC4 Add2 TC1. Extending with support for arbitrary IFC schemas is possible at compile-time when using C++ and at run-time when using Python.
In addition to a C++ and Python API, IfcOpenShell comes with an ecosystem of tools, notably including IfcConvert (an application to convert IFC models to other formats), Bonsai (an add-on to Blender providing a graphical IFC authoring platform), and many other libraries, CLI apps, and more. Support is also provided for auxiliary standards such as BCF and IDS.
