Question:
I have a drawing with 8 section views: C-C, D-D, F-F, G-G, H-H, M-M, N-N and R-R.
Adding a new section view to Tekla Structures creates the section view named S-S.
Is it possible to reuse deleted section view names, like (A-A, B-B, E-E, etc.)?
Answer:
There is no option to force Tekla Structures to use a section view name that has been deleted in the past. The software only checks for the last used section view name in the current drawing and creates the next one in alphabetical order.
For example, if there are section views A-A, B-B and C-C in the drawing, and if the section view B-B is deleted, the next section view that will be created will be named D-D. But if the section view C-C is deleted, the next created section view will have the C-C name again.
It is possible to manually overwrite the section view names.
