See #6835. Qto_OpeningElementBaseQuantities came out axis-scrambled for openings authored in a Z-up local frame (X along the voided wall, Y through it, Z vertical), which is how Bonsai authors every wall opening: - The IfcOpenShell engine mapped Height to the local Y extent and Depth to the local Z extent, so a 0.9 x 2.0 door opening with Bonsai's default 1.2m void depth reported Height 1.2 and Depth 2.0, and Area (max side area) picked the through-wall side, 2.4 instead of 1.8. This matches the wrong Height=1.2/Area=1.2 screenshots reported for a 1x1 window opening in #6835. - The Blender engine mapped opening Width to get_length, which returns the longest bounding box edge, i.e. the opening height for typical door openings (the same defect4adaf0dfixed for IfcDoor Width), and get_opening_depth used min(x, y), which returns the opening width whenever the width is smaller than the void depth. The IfcOpenShell engine now has opening-aware internal calculators (get_opening_width/height/depth/area) that detect horizontal (slab style) openings with the same heuristic as the Blender calculator, so slab opening depths keep reporting the slab thickness. The Blender ruleset uses get_x for opening Width, and get_opening_depth measures the through-element Y extent for vertical openings. Door and window quantities themselves are addressed separately: the Blender engine door Width was fixed in4adaf0d, and the remaining door/window defects (door not quantified on the IfcOpenShell engine, inflated areas) are fixed by the attribute-based calculators in #8389. Generated with the assistance of an AI coding tool.
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.
