With the functions of the dialog area BIMtest you can check certain aspects of vital importance for the BIM field.

Activate the desired functions:

On the tabbed page General following points have to be set, the rest may remain disabled for a pure BIM Check.

If a report shall be created, in the tabbed page Output, activate the function Create protocol. Then enter the output path for the Error file and the CSV separator.

The BIM test can be customized if needed.

The report is created as CSV file. There, some points like status, project path, text, for example, are shown.

In the dialog area Variables selection, you can make a restriction to certain variables. Disable ALL_VARS and set the desired variables via Plus sign +.

Now the table Translation only shows the manually created in the Variables section.
