Tekla Structures

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.

  1. 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
  2. In Template editor, check each tag where one of the following rows appears:
    • GetValue(\"MAINPART.NAME\")
    • GetValue(\"NAME\")
    • GetValue(\"BOLT_STANDARD\")
    • GetValue(\"SURFACING_NAME\")
  3. 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.
