Defect number Development area Description
TSAC-1281 Concrete components In Wall layout and Floor layout, when a user-defined attribute value on the UDA/User defined tab is empty, the components now ignore these empty values. This lowers the risk of overwriting these UDAs.
TSAC-1380 Concrete components Wall layout: You can now split a wall layout component into separate components. To split the wall layout, create a seam, then select the seam and click the split command in the contextual toolbar. The split is persistent and there is no combine command.
Note also that if the splitting seam contains some detailing components, those components will be lost in the split but the seam offsets will be maintained.
TSAC-1835 Concrete components Sloping slab drainage now works correctly on slabs with recesses.
TSAC-1859 Concrete components Previously, Wall layout tools used the circular opening settings for rectangular openings if a circular opening was modified before creating the rectangular opening. This has now been changed.
TSAC-1868 Concrete components Mesh bars: Direct modifications to rebars created by the Mesh bars component are no longer lost when the component is copied.
TSAC-1896 Concrete components In Detailing manager, the Filter and Attribute lists now show long filter and attribute file names correctly when you open the lists. When you have selected a filter or an attribute file with a long name that does not fit in the list box and place the mouse pointer on the name, the whole name is now shown in a tooltip.
TSAC-2019 Concrete components Wall layout opening: When copying an opening with direct modification using the Ctrl button, fillers are now correctly copied along with the opening.
TSAC-2089 Concrete components In Mesh bars, bar splicing has been improved and bar lengths cannot extend the maximum allowed value.

TTSD-27776 Drawings Reference models: Assembly, cast unit, and single-part drawings: Previously, section symbols were created very far apart and view boundaries were too large if the model contained reference models, even when the reference models were not visible in the drawings. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-27840 Drawings The section marks are no longer referring to wrong views.
TTSD-28212 Drawings Slotted hole symbols are now drawn correctly again.
TTSD-3985 Drawings Locking an issued drawing caused the drawing to always change its status to "Issued drawing changed" in the drawing list, even though the drawing itself was not changed. Now, locking an unchanged issued drawing will not change the drawing status. Locking a drawing that was modified after issuing will, however, retain its "changed" status.
Reading in Issued sets locally locked to unlocked state, and reading in Lock sets locally Issued to not issued state.
TTSD-14480 Tekla Model Sharing Previously in Tekla Model Sharing, saving a copy of a shared model with the Save As option could erase the creation time and creator of model objects. This has now been fixed so that the creation time of model objects is the time that the copied model was saved, and the creator is the user that saved the model.
TTSD-15628 Tekla Model Sharing Previously, when a multi-user model was converted into a shared model, inserting an object could appear twice in the object history. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-16162 Tekla Model Sharing The appearance of usernames in the history of shared models has been unified. The usernames are now shown in the domain\name format.
TTSD-16206 Tekla Model Sharing In shared models, for parametric sketched profiles with several properties, the profile geometries were calculated incorrectly after read in until model was saved and reopened. Now this has been fixed. The geometries are correct after read in. Note that all users of model need have this Service Pack in use when writing out and reading in to have the correct geometries.
TTSD-19572 Tekla Model Sharing Locked components are no longer automatically updated when you start sharing a model. Users can update the locked components manually by double-clicking the components and clicking Modify in the component properties dialog box.
TTSD-22018 Tekla Model Sharing If a drawing in a shared model has been modified remotely and deleted locally, the changes list now shows the status "Modified / Conflict" or "Deleted / Conflict" for the drawing when you read in. The mark and name of the drawing are now also shown correctly.
TTSD-22561 Tekla Model Sharing The SharingConfiguration.xml file is no longer in required in Tekla Model Sharing, so the file has been removed from the installation folder.
TTSD-22776 Tekla Model Sharing Previously, some drawing versions did not work properly in Tekla Model Sharing. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22960 Tekla Model Sharing In Tekla Model Sharing, profile import has been improved as follows:
  • Importing of .lis profiles which have double quotes followed by space in the names has been fixed.
  • Importing of .lis profiles which have duplicated cross-section points has been fixed.
  • Reliability of importing profile updates during read in has been improved.
TTSD-23179 Tekla Model Sharing The performance of Organizer synchronization has been improved in situations where the model history contains a lot of deleted objects.
TTSD-23785 Tekla Model Sharing Previously, when a user of a shared model was assigned the Editor role and the user opened Tekla Structures with a configuration that did not support that role, the user was shown a message prompting to open Tekla Structures with an empty role (""). This has now been fixed so that the message more clearly states the required role.
TTSD-23897 Tekla Model Sharing Previously in Tekla Model Sharing, weld lengths were sometimes not properly adjusted if welds ran at the edge of two touching beams, and the beam widths were separately changed in both the local model and in the shared model. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-23998 Tekla Model Sharing The Replace option for importing profiles to the profile catalog in shared models now works correctly when cross sections in the original profile and the imported profile have identical names.
TTSD-25827 Tekla Model Sharing Previously, if some files related to a model had percent signs (%) in their names, sharing the model could fail. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-25994 Tekla Model Sharing Tekla Model Sharing:
- If writing out a shared model fails, the model sharing log and the error log now show more details about the failure.
- Shared models can now be saved even if some of the saved files are locked by other applications, such as antivirus software.
TTSD-26304 Tekla Model Sharing

In some situations, conflicts in the model could cause the error "Dbvirtual fatal error: internal consistency failure" in read in and restart of Tekla Structures. This has now been fixed.

Note: There may be other reasons for this error. If you experience this error with versions at or above those listed here, contact your local support.

TTSD-26837 Tekla Model Sharing Reference models: Previously in shared models, conflicts with reference models at read-in sometimes caused situations where reference objects could not be shown as invisible in the model view. This has now been fixed.
TSAC-2735 Reinforcement Previously, if you used a Rebar coupler or Rebar end anchor component with rebar sets and manually attached the rebar set bars to another part, the components remained attached to the original part. This has now been fixed. Now both the rebars set bars and the components are correctly attached to the other part.
TSAC-2747 Reinforcement In Rebar shape manager, the value of total length along center line (CLL) was not correct in case the bending radius values and angles were varying. This has now been fixed.

This fix also affects reports if the CLL value has been used for calculations.
TSAC-2941 Reinforcement Previously, the first / last leg length was incorrect when hooks were set to be ignored in shape recognition (XS_REBAR_RECOGNITION_HOOKS_CONSIDERATION=FALSE) and the hook angle was less than 90 degrees. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-13797 Reinforcement Tekla Structures now checks for duplicates when creating rebar set modifiers and splitters.
TTSD-19685 Reinforcement The end detail modifier hook type could not be changed in the contextual toolbar if the bending radius was non-standard. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-19875 Reinforcement Previously, to make rebar sets visible when opening the custom component editor, you had to redraw the view. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-21170 Reinforcement When copying properties of rebar sets, the first affected bar is now copied correctly.
TTSD-21872 Reinforcement Earlier, the outermost rebar set bars split by splitters were put into the cover thickness area. This is not happening anymore since the splitters can now modify rebar set start and end offsets, if needed.
TTSD-23658 Reinforcement Previously, if you used the Copy properties command in the property pane to copy spacing zone properties to multiple rebar sets at the same time, new zones could be created with their properties all set to zero. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-23719 Reinforcement Rebar set bars are now correctly shown as selected in the model when selected in Organizer.
TTSD-23731 Reinforcement Rebar set bars are now correctly shown as selected in the model when selected in Task manager.
TTSD-23905 Reinforcement DirectX rendering performance has been improved when visualizing bent rebars which have a large bending radius.
TTSD-24256 Reinforcement Previously, you could not select multiple rebar sets to be cut with the Part cut command. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-24323 Reinforcement The Diagnose and repair numbering: series of selected objects command now works correctly for rebar sets.
TTSD-24838 Reinforcement Copying rebar set properties in the property pane now works correctly when you use area selection to select the rebar sets to which you want to copy properties.
TTSD-25246 Reinforcement Modifying multiple rebar set leg faces or guidelines through the property pane now works correctly.
TTSD-26272 Reinforcement Previously, when creating property modifiers for rebar sets, the selected bars picking mode was not activated. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-26528 Reinforcement In rebar sets, the leg face and the secondary guideline selection was previously lost in the property pane after a modification. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-26787 Reinforcement The property pane is now updated correctly when selecting a modifier command on the Rebar set contextual tab on the ribbon, or on the contextual toolbar. Previously, the property pane occasionally showed the properties of the selected rebar set even if you selected a modifier command.
TTSD-26803 Reinforcement In rebar sets, when you were placing a splitter modifier and tried to snap to mid points, snapping did not work correctly. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-16302 Modeling Weld position is now available on the contextual toolbar in the Construction modeling configuration.
TTSD-17847 Modeling When numbering (with the save-numbering-save setting selected in the Numbering set up dialog box), unnamed temporary views disappeared when canceling the numbering. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-20433 Modeling Selecting parts in large models is now much faster.
TTSD-20475 Modeling Modifying bent plates has been changed so that you can now modify the connecting plates freely as long as they fit some bend.
TTSD-21927 Modeling Direct modification of elevation grid lines in radial grids now works for every orthogonal view that passes through the origin of the grid.
TTSD-23098 Modeling The Diagnose model command now adds a new line "Obsolete object modification rows found." if there are any rows to be removed in the model database. Use the Repair model command to remove these rows. This can considerably reduce the database size if it had become too large as a result of creating and deleting multiple objects with UDAs.
TTSD-23539 Modeling When you use direct modification to add a new elevation grid line to a rectangular grid, the grid label is now shown correctly.
TTSD-24058 Modeling Previously, Tekla Structures could crash when you created and opened a single-part drawing when the property pane was open. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-24372 Modeling Previously, the database size could become too large if you created and deleted multiple objects with UDAs. This has now been fixed. 
TTSD-24499 Modeling Previously, you could enter an invalid shape name for an item in the property pane, which would change the item into a stick. This is now prevented. Instead, Tekla Structures instructs you to select a new shape.


TTSD-24549 Modeling Models created with Tekla Structures versions older than 2017 could get corrupted if they were saved while runtime IDs were disabled. Saving models will now fail if runtime IDs are disabled, which will prevent models from being corrupted for that reason.
TTSD-24692 Modeling Previously, when you selected to keep duplicate objects, you had to redraw the view or the duplicate objects did not appear. This happened with all object types. Now this has been fixed.
TTSD-25099 Modeling When you renamed a grid line label on the contextual toolbar, the grid properties were not updated and the previous label returned when dragging the line. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-25123 Modeling Previously, cross sections could sometimes get incorrectly renamed with a redundant extension " 2", when automatically renamed after importing profiles (for example, "A100 2 2", or "A100 2 2 2 2"). Now the deduplication numbers in cross section names are incremented correctly (for example, "A100 3", "A100 4", and so on).
TTSD-25150 Modeling When defining the grid distance in imperial units in the property pane, a number without a foot symbol but with an inch symbol ("a-b""), was not recognized correctly causing grid modification to be impossible. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-25153 Modeling When creating construction objects, it is no longer necessary to be very close to the desired points to be snapped.
TTSD-25163 Modeling Previously, when holes were not modeled correctly (not going through any part), they were invisible, giving to a user no chance to fix the situation. This now has been fixed.
TTSD-25205 Modeling Sometimes, when you created a new orthogonal view to a radial grid plane, for the radial grids that started from the negative angle elevation plane, the grid lines were too short and the elevation plane was smaller than needed. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-25387 Modeling When copying or moving a bent plate (or a stand-alone bent plate) using the Mirror command, the coordinate system of the part would sometimes jump to an incorrect location. This has been now fixed.
TTSD-25515 Modeling When using the Ortho tool, the snap symbol is now again shown as the snap to any position symbol.
TTSD-25571 Modeling Deleting the latest used shape from the Shape catalog does not prevent inserting the following items anymore.
TTSD-25661 Modeling The selected snap switch now works correctly when creating construction objects.
TTSD-25782 Modeling An issue that would have caused certain previously imported shapes in the shape catalog to be incorrectly cleaned has been fixed in Tekla Structures. The affected shapes typically have had holes and have been imported to Tekla Structures using a version prior to Tekla Structures version 2018i, and then cleaned in version 2018i or newer using the Shape cleaner application. The incorrect result could be seen in the 3D view as missing faces on the cleaned shapes.
TTSD-25862 Modeling Previously, when updating a bolt group using the old property dialog box, the bolt tolerance changed to 1.0. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-25981 Modeling Performance issues in user-defined sketched profile use have been fixed.
TTSD-26117 Modeling Saving the model with Save as could take a long time because Tekla Structures was recreating drawings. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-26240 Modeling Previously, profiles whose SUB_TYPE was defined without quotation marks in the .lis file could not be imported. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-26395 Modeling When you create a concrete or a steel item, the Undo history dialog box now properly shows the correct command name. Previously, the dialog box listed Direct modification as the last command.
TTSD-26760 Modeling Previously, when you loaded a property file that did not contain the assembly numbering value in the property pane, Tekla Structures would crash. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-26815 Modeling The Work plane handler toolbar now works better when saving multi-user models (save and model reopen). The toolbar now keeps the set work plane when saving the model.
TTSD-27157 Modeling Previously, when you modified grid properties in the property pane using US imperial units, the distances with feet and inches that included feet symbols and the inches having fractional values (a'-b.c") did not work correctly. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-27623 Modeling Previously, changing the visibility of reference models caused conflicts in multi-user models. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-27743 Modeling Previously, saving a multi-user model with the Save as command could cause problems when trying to open or save the model later. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-27762 Modeling Previously, if a bent plate had several edge chamfers, removing one of them caused others to disappear. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-27870 Modeling Snapping to the nearest point now works when using the Ortho tool.
TTSD-28122 Modeling Previously, a warning message was shown when you opened the user-defined attributes (UDAs) dialog box for a cast unit sub-assembly from the property pane. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-29301 Modeling Previously, when you had selected all parts in a cast unit with the Alt key pressed and you had the Select components selection switch active, trying to deselect a custom component sub-assembly in the cast unit by clicking the sub-assembly with the Ctrl button pressed could cause Tekla Structures to crash. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-3635 Modeling

When setting the location dimensions of items and custom parts, the small yellow arrows above the dimension value box are not shown anymore and the value you enter is now used as the dimension value.

SOLD-960 Licensing When using online license with Stay signed in selected, changing to another configuration and restarting Tekla Structures does not show the selected configuration. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-24170 Installation Tekla Structures Extension manager now displays a message box while scanning for installed extensions.
TTSD-24789 Installation Previously, in some environments, Tekla Structures could crash if you modified rebar groups by using the property pane. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-18955 Analysis and design Previously, static ID model conversion failed in some rare cases because of ID handling. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22292 Core The DX rendering now shows correctly the edges of double curved surfaces, especially visible in the wireframe rendering (Ctrl+1). Additionally, fillet edges are now shown in the same way as in OpenGL rendering.
TSAC-1607 Tools and components Previously, using Layout manager especially when working with large models could sometimes be very slow as some actions could take a long time. This has now been improved.
TSAC-1777 Tools and components Sometimes, the layout point class color in the Layout point dialog box was not the basic class color of the parts. This has now been fixed.
TSAC-2154 Tools and components Previously, Layout manager stopped working if you tried to create more than 255 groups, which is the maximum number of groups in Layout manager. This has now been fixed, and it is no longer possible to create more than 255 groups.
TSAC-2242 Tools and components In Layout manager, the layout points selected in the model were not properly highlighted in Layout manager when they belonged to different groups. This has now been fixed.
TSAC-2312 Tools and components In CMF Horizontal cladding support - column (33), you can now use the Gauge setting on the Parameters tab to change the gauge of the COJR strut created by this component.
TSAC-2518 Tools and components The performance of layout point and layout line handling has been improved in Layout manager.
TSAC-2759 Tools and components In some cases, changing the group name in the Layout point or Layout line dialog box could cause an error when clicking the Modify button. This has now been fixed.

TSAC-2978 Tools and components Layout manager now displays a dialog box that shows the progress of some commands.
TSAC-3261 Tools and components Previously, Layout Manager could crash if you modified the properties of a base point that was assigned to groups in Layout Manager. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-20154 Tools and components Using the AutoDefaults rule group Shear_Tabs no longer crashes Tekla Structures and Windows.
TTSD-23219 Tools and components Layout points now remain visible at all zoom levels, when previously they were reverted into sticks at zoom levels.
TTSD-23992 Tools and components Modifying a system component previously produced a status bar message: Outdated component was updated to match the current component definition. Now the message is only displayed for modified and updated custom components.
TTSD-24236 Tools and components In the Shape cleaner application, long directory names are now shown on multiple lines so that they are not clipped anymore.
TTSD-24623 Tools and components RPC interface function xs_select_part was returning the wrong object type in case of cut or add parts. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-24676 Tools and components In the Shape cleaner application, the shape name list is now shown in alphabetical order.
TTSD-9687 Tools and components Previously, Tekla Structures could crash if an error occurred while reading the Applications & components catalog settings file. This has now been fixed.

TTSD-20908 User interface The construction line extension in the contextual toolbar now follows the unit settings.
TTSD-21792 User interface The contextual toolbar is now available for items and concrete items in the model.
TTSD-21806 User interface Previously, when you clicked a selection or snap switch button, and then clicked another selection or snap switch button, the button you had clicked first also stayed selected for some time. This happened when a firm or project folder was mapped to a network drive and the network connection was slow. Now this has been fixed.
TTSD-21857 User interface New concrete spiral beams now show the correct pour phase number in the property pane when the pour phase has been set for other previously created concrete spiral beams.
TTSD-22240 User interface Objects now remain visible at all zoom levels. Previously, they disappeared from the view at some zoom levels.
TTSD-22777 User interface Previously, when you maximized the Customize toolbars dialog box, the OK, Apply, Discard and Cancel buttons at the bottom of the dialog box were not visible. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-23422 User interface The Work plane handler toolbar now works correctly when a new view is created using the part plane.
TTSD-24246 User interface The property pane now shows an error message if a part profile is not available in the environment you are currently using. Previously, the property pane did not show any error if you selected a part whose profile did not exist in the environment.
TTSD-24308 User interface Previously, when you modified a UDA that did not affect numbering by using the property pane, Tekla Structures still considered the model object as needing renumbering. Now this does not happen anymore.
TTSD-25075 User interface Reference models: Previously, there was sometimes a significant lag when zooming to reference model objects while the Set view rotation point (V) command was active. This has now been improved.
TTSD-25509 User interface When filtering object types in the property pane editor, the editor will now only allow you to make changes if you have an object type selected. Previously, trying to make changes with no object type selected caused Tekla Structures to crash.
TTSD-25514 User interface The last used contextual toolbar profile is now correctly stored in the registry. Previously, it was overwritten when you started Tekla Structures again.
TTSD-25602 User interface When entering imperial values in the property pane for rebar sets, the values for rounding and step tapering are now formatted correctly.
