When the geometry in view needs more GPU memory than the cache can hold, the viewer keeps the largest on-screen chunks resident and streams the rest as the camera moves. That is the right degradation, but it was invisible: nothing told the user the scene did not fit, and the only lever was removing or hiding models, neither of which is "keep it in the federation but stop spending GPU memory on it". Viewer core: - ModelGpuData::unloaded, with drawable() = !hidden && !unloaded now the test every cull / draw / pick / streaming pass uses. unloadModel evicts every chunk and releases the model's own buffers; loadModel recreates them from the CPU mirrors (no disk read) and lets chunks stream back. Recompose keeps the CPU instances current while a model is unloaded so a reload sees up-to-date transforms. The MeshGpu/InstanceGpu record builders are factored out so load and reload share them. - FrameStats reports the camera's working set: chunks wanted, how many of those are not resident, and their bytes. - modelVramBytes / isModelUnloaded accessors, forwarded by ViewportWindow. BonsaiViewer: - Models tree gains a memory column (name | MB | eye) refreshed once a second and on load-state changes; unloaded models read "unloaded" in italics. The viewport stays the single authority for the state; SessionState only carries the modelLoadStateChanged notification. - Context menu: "Unload Model" / "Load Model", distinct from hide and remove, reporting the MB freed in the status bar. - Status bar notice, independent of the perf-stats toggle, once the shortfall has persisted for 3 s (a moment of missing chunks after any camera move is normal): "GPU memory full: N of M visible chunks (X MB) not loaded", with a tooltip pointing at Unload. The perf label also shows "N/M chunks waiting". Verified on the GPU: unloading a 497 MB model frees it immediately with the others still rendering; reloading streams all 180 chunks back.

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.
