Speed and Accuracy

Use this advanced option to define the chord tolerance for round tubes larger than the limit set by the advanced option XS_CHORD_TOLERANCE_SMALL_TUBE_SIZE_LIMIT. Enter the value in millimeters. The default value is 1.0.

Re-open the model to activate the new value.

Chord tolerance

Chord tolerance is the maximum difference between a straight segment used to display a tubular section in model views and the actual tubular section:

Note:

Do not change the chord tolerance settings during a project. Changing them automatically recreates the tubular sections in the model when you restart Tekla Structures, resulting in slightly different solid objects, which may affect numbering.
