I want to script IDF editor to open and save a .idf file with sorted option. Could not find command line interface(CLI) options for IDF editor. Anyone know about those options ?
The command line interface options for IDF Editor are very limited. A file name provided will be opened:
idfeditor 1ZoneUncontrolled.idfThis will start up IDF Editor and open the file in the GUI.
The only option is the /idd: option which allows a different IDD file to be chosen. This feature was added primarily for the SLAB and BASEMENT preprocessors.
There is no command line option for saving a file with sorted option. It does sound like a good new feature. I have an GitHub issue that I am using to keep track of features for IDF Editor which includes "Add ability to apply sorting order to IDF files to a group of files rather than opening and saving each one individually." Unfortunately, I have no idea when or if these features requests will ever be added to IDF Editor.
