Inconsistent object colours after export

Daniel Olumuyiwa

I've used Simplebim to change colour of some objects and exported the IFC. The problem is when I open the IFC in other IFC viewers, the colour isn't the same as what I have specified in Simplebim.

    Hi,

    I created a support ticket for this issue, as it's possible that we'll need to take a look at the IFC file to see what's happening under the hood.

    Best regards,

    Gio

    One thing that might be worth trying is using the "Legacy Colors of 3D Objects" export option instead of the "Colors of 3D Objects" option. It uses an older encoding, which might work better with some applications.
