Geometry
The best geometry transfer is tried. For example, the system tries to export boxes and cylinders as the IFC equivalents. However, there are occasions when this is not possible and geometry is exported as triangulated facets. The disadvantage of this is that the IFC file can be quite large.
Facets only
All geometry is exported as triangulated facets. A significantly larger transfer file is created, which is more likely to be readable by the receiving system since the geometry is as simple as possible.
