There are several improvements in
templates and reports in Tekla Structures 2022.
For more information about
these improvements, see Improvements in
Template Editor, templates, and reports and Changes in managing
Tekla Structures in the Tekla Structures 2022 release notes.
-
In all files in your environment folder, search for rows that
contain NAME or BOLT_STANDARD.
- You can use a text editor that supports searching in
files, such as Notepad++, to search for
NAME|BOLT_STANDARD in all
files in your environment folder.
- In Windows PowerShell, you can run the following
command:
Get-ChildItem *.tpl,*.rpt -Recurse|Select-String -Pattern 'formula = "GetValue\(\\"BOLT_STANDARD\\"\)','formula = "GetValue\(\\"MAINPART.NAME\\"\)','formula = "GetValue\(\\"NAME\\"\)','formula = "GetValue\(\\"SURFACING_NAME\\"\)' -CaseSensitive
-
In Template editor, check each tag where one of the following rows
appears:
GetValue(\"MAINPART.NAME\")
GetValue(\"NAME\")
GetValue(\"BOLT_STANDARD\")
GetValue(\"SURFACING_NAME\")
-
Where possible, increase the length of the value fields for
NAME and BOLT_STANDARD.
- For occurrences on a single line, increase the
length of the value field for NAME to 61 characters
and the length of the value field for BOLT_STANDARD
to 30 characters.
- For occurrences in table format, increase the length
of the value fields if is possible to increase the
length without increasing the width of the
reports.
- For reports in which it is not possible to increase
the length, consider changing the page layout, such
as by adding a new line for the values.
