To access the Object to Item Occurrence Configuration panel, select the following within the dRofus Menuオブジェクトからアイテムへのオカレンス設定パネルにアクセスするには、dRofusメニューの中から以下を選択します :
The Object <-> Item Occurrence Configuration Editor dialog will then open as follows:
...
It is also not necessary for the values within the Key attribute used for comparing to be common for all Object types in the Project. Those Objects that don't have the parameter will not be linked when such a configuration is used.
Top Section:
- Chose Configuration: Drop down list of pre-defined configurations.
- New: Create a new configuration.
- Copy: Makes a copy of the active configuration.
- Delete: Deletes the active configuration.
- Available to users: If this is checked all Users can see / use this configuration. If not checked then only those who have BIM Administration access can use the configuration.
- Is Default Configuration: The User with BIM Administration access can mark one of the configurations as default by checking this. This will set the configuration as the default configuration used in all related dialogs (i.e., for synchronizing Item Occurrences, linking Item Occurrences etc.) for all Users.
...
If you set another configuration as default, the configuration called "Default" will actually no longer be the default configuration.
'Attributes not linked' Section:
- dRofus attribute (left-hand side): This is a list of all the available dRofus attributes which you can synchronize data to / from that are not already in the current configuration. Note that (in addition to dRofus Items' Type-based attributes), there are also dRofus Item Occurrences' Instance-based attributes available.
- ArchiCAD parameter (right-hand side): This is a list of all the available ArchiCAD parameters which you can synchronize data to / from that are not already in the current configuration. This list will be based on either the Library Part of the currently selected Object, or only the common parameters (if multiple-selected Objects have different sets of parameters), or the default Library Part (if there are no Objects selected).
If any of the attributes or parameters are in grey tone, it means that it is a read-only attribute / parameter, and therefore you can only synchronize data from this attribute / parameter and not to.
'Linked Attributes' Section:
Select a Key Attribute to be used for matching: Select a dRofus Attribute and an ArchiCAD Parameter, then click on "Link ==". Every configuration is required to have only one mapping as the Key attribute used for comparing. For Item Occurrence configurations, it is recommended that the dRofus ID is used as the Key attribute used for comparing as it is guaranteed to be unique (at least within dRofus) so it will be easy to spot deviations in Item Occurrences if changes happen in either ArchiCAD or dRofus. When linking Object Instances to Item Occurrences, the key value is read from dRofus and then written in to ArchiCAD (unless the ArchiCAD parameter is read-only or the dRofus parameter is empty - in which case the key value is read from ArchiCAD and then written in to dRofus). The following is an example of an Object <-> Item Occurrence Configuration where the ID is used as the key, and the values against the ID attribute in dRofus gets injected in to a parameter called A under Object in ArchiCAD, after which the link between the dRofus Item Occurrences and ArchiCAD Object Instances will then be maintained:
