Answer:
Currently, there is no option to Unwrap the Pipes through the mean-diameter. You can use the following workaround:
Example: Pipe 150x10 , perimeter=471
- Export the the unwrapped view made by tekla into DXF
- Image
- Calculate the perimeter when using the mean-diameter; mean-diameter=150-10=140, mean perimeter=3.14 x 140= 440
- Calculate the scale factor by mean perimeter/original perimeter=440/471=0.93
- Insert that DXF file into Tekla Structures drawing and use the scale factor:
