8.9.3.14.3 Attributes

# Attribute Type Description
IfcRepresentationItem (2)
LayerAssignment SET [0:1] OF IfcPresentationLayerAssignment FOR AssignedItems

Assignment of the representation item to a single or multiple layer(s). The LayerAssignments can override a LayerAssignments of the IfcRepresentation it is used within the list of Items.

StyledByItem SET [0:1] OF IfcStyledItem FOR Item

Reference to the IfcStyledItem that provides presentation information to the representation, e.g. a curve style, including colour and thickness to a geometric curve.

IfcCartesianTransformationOperator (6)
1 Axis1 OPTIONAL IfcDirection

The direction used to determine U[1], the derived X axis direction.

2 Axis2 OPTIONAL IfcDirection

The direction used to determine U[2], the derived Y axis direction.

3 LocalOrigin IfcCartesianPoint

The required translation, specified as a cartesian point. The actual translation included in the transformation is from the geometric origin to the local origin.

4 Scale OPTIONAL IfcReal

The scaling value specified for the transformation.

* Scl IfcReal

This attribute is formally derived.

NVL(Scale, 1.0)

The derived scale S of the transformation, equal to scale if that exists, or 1.0 otherwise.

* Dim IfcDimensionCount

This attribute is formally derived.

LocalOrigin.Dim

The space dimensionality of this class, determined by the space dimensionality of the local origin.

IfcCartesianTransformationOperator2D (1)
* U LIST [2:2] OF IfcDirection

This attribute is formally derived.

IfcBaseAxis(2,SELF\IfcCartesianTransformationOperator.Axis1,
SELF\IfcCartesianTransformationOperator.Axis2,?)

The list of mutually orthogonal, normalized vectors defining the transformation matrix T. They are derived from the explicit attributes Axis1 and Axis2 in that order.
