8.14.3.10 IfcPresentationLayerWithStyle

8.14.3.10.1 Semantic definition

An IfcPresentationLayerWithStyle extends the presentation layer assignment with capabilities to define visibility control, access control and common style information.

The visibility control allows to define a layer to be either 'on' or 'off', and/or 'frozen' or 'not frozen'. The access control allows to block graphical entities from manipulations by setting a layer to be either 'blocked' or 'not blocked'. Common style information can be given to the layer.

Name Description
ApplicableOnlyToItems

The IfcPresentationLayerWithStyle shall only be used to assign subtypes of IfcGeometricRepresentationItem's and to IfcMappedItem. There shall be no instance of subtypes of IfcRepresentation in the set of AssignedItem's.
