Administrator's release notes: Integrated link to Tekla Tedds for simple connections
Ribbon commands for Tekla Tedds Integrator in Tekla Structures 2024 allow you to link Tekla Tedds calculation documents to your Tekla Structures model. The integration reduces the amount of manual work that the detailer or engineer has to do in Tekla Structures, which improves productivity.
For more information about these improvements, see Integrated link to Tekla Tedds for simple connections.
Enable the user interface for Tekla Tedds Integrator
The Tekla Tedds Integrator extension is included in Tekla Structures 2024, but parts of the user interface are not visible by default. You must enable the user interface for the feature in the environment.
By default, only these parts of the Tekla Tedds Integrator user interface are visible:
-
The Tekla Tedds Integrator commands in the Applications & components catalog.
-
The Tedds Documents Representation option in the View Properties dialog box. This representation shows which model elements have Tekla Tedds documents attached.
These parts of the Tekla Tedds user interface are not visible until you enable the user interface for the feature in the environment:
-
The Tekla Tedds tab on the ribbon
-
The Tekla Tedds tab in the user-defined attributes dialog box.
To enable the user interface for Tekla Tedds Integrator:
-
Add
%XSDATADIR%\environments\common\system\Analysisto the XS_SYSTEM path in an env_<environment>.ini or role_<role>.ini file. -
Update the Applications & components catalog in one of these ways:
- Group Tekla Tedds tools in the Applications & components catalog.
- Hide Tekla Tedds tools in Applications & components catalog if Tekla Tedds is not supported in your area.
