Better Data Anomaly Checking

In the process of creating its 3D display, gbXML Viewer creates a 3D plane object for every surface in the file. This object is defined by using the first three vertices of the polyloop for each surface. It turns out that gbXML files polyloops may contain a variety of data curiosities. There may be duplicate vertices in the first three vertices - causing a quadrilateral to be created using five vertices instead of just four. Or the first three vertices may be in a straight line. Anything like this will prevent the plane from being well formulated.

The current release add checks for situations like this and uses the fourth vertex instead of the first vertex in order to define the plane. The extra check slows down the loading of the model and ways of mitigating the delay are being investigated.

HUD

In order to help identify duplicate surfaces or to correct surfaces with duplicate surfaces a variety of new buttons have been added to the heads up display.

The code for deleting duplicates or editing adjacencies will be added in a future release.

@theo-armour ABSOLUTLEY BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!! first test

model with unwanted shade

fix using version R10.3

[mdengusiak]

One thing to look I have a correct wall here:

then I had air wall that I corrected as I changed to external wall and connected space.. it is correct on right hand side but when I click using HOD seems to be empty, file is fixed but HOD display is not showing correct data

[mdengusiak]

@theo-armour wish list as discussed

1. Allow CADObjectId to be added to Edit:

2. Allow multiple modification for surfaces with common errors

3. Allow to make few modification before we have to click save edits 2018-02-23 DONE :)

4. remember set up and view settings after click save edits so we have same view and tools open 2018-02-23 DONE :)
