IFC Schemes data can be transferred from one project to another. If you defined an IFC
Scheme and you wish to save it for later use or use it in another project, you may click
the Export button and save the Scheme as an XML file.
All defined custom IFC Properties will be saved into the XML file.
If you wish to incorporate a saved IFC Scheme into your Project, you may activate the Merge
button, select an IFC Scheme file to be merged and click the Open button.
The name of this command, Merge, reflects how it works: it does not overwrite custom
IFC Properties already existing in the Project, it simply merges the custom IFC Properties
found in the XML file into the current IFC Scheme. If the name of a custom IFC Property
in the merged XML file and in the existing Scheme is the same, the existing one is maintained
and not overwritten.
