When you set the advanced option to TRUE, Tekla Structurescreates AK blocks in DSTV files for all profiles, combined NC files and part lists. The default value is TRUE.

When you set the advanced option to FALSE, Tekla Structures checks whether an AK block needs to be created for the part, and creates the AK block when needed.

The DSTV standard does not require the creation of AK blocks if the profile is completely described by its length, its dimensions and its skewed cuts in the header data. This advanced option allows you to create AK blocks for profiles even if the header data already covers all the information of the profile.

This advanced option is model specific and the setting is saved in the options database.
