Previously, applyCoordinateOperationToViewport — which pushes both
CoordinateOperation and ModelTransformation — was only called on
paths that required the IFC source to be loaded
(onLoadedFromStream and onDataSourceReady). Sidecar-only loads
(loadDataSource off, or no .ifc/.rdb sibling) silently lost both
stages.
Cache the per-model georef + unit scales in the sidecar itself so
the IFC source isn't needed to apply them:
SidecarData gains
coordinate_operation_meters[16] // column-major
project_length_to_meters
map_unit_to_meters
has_coordinate_operation
148 B fixed block written/read between instances and elements.
SIDECAR_VERSION 10 -> 11; existing sidecars rebuild on next load.
MainWindow::writeSidecarForModel populates the block from
loader_->modelGeoref(mid) before writeSidecar.
SceneLoader::applySidecarData restores it into the model's
ModelGeoref + sets has_georef = true, so subsequent
loader_->modelGeoref(mid) calls return the cached data without
needing the IFC.
MainWindow::onLoadedFromSidecar now calls
applyCoordinateOperationToViewport(mid) directly — both
CoordinateOperation and ModelTransformation land at sidecar-load
time, no longer waiting on a possibly-never-arriving data source.
Edits to the IFC's IfcMapConversion don't invalidate the cache —
delete the .ifcview manually if the source's georef changes. This
matches the existing cache-invalidation contract.
Tests: round-trip the new fields through the existing sidecar
fixture; assert SIDECAR_VERSION == 11.

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.
