Alias: Save GUIDs to File

Tool for writing the IFC GUIDs (Globally Unique IDs) of all selected objects into a text file. This allows you to move object selections, like included or excluded objects, between different versions of the same model.

When this tool is run from a template or script it writes the IFC GUIDs of all included objects that have a geometry. In this scenario the file name must be given with the FILE_NAME parameter because the tool is run silently and no file save dialog is shown.
