Nowhere to put OTHER status value

Open Moult opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

If PEnum_ElementStatus is set to OTHER, there is nowhere for the user to fill out the "userdefined" status. Perhaps this is OK and the intention is to use IfcTasks for more complex staging / statusing / phasing, but it would be good to be explicit about this in the docs.

I guess this applies to all PEnums though? Or are the property sets where such an enum property is accompanied by a freeform label property for this purpose?

Agreed, this is a larger issue which applies to (almost?) all enums.
