Symbol files for drawings

Symbols are used in various places in drawings, for example, as separate objects, and in marks.

You can create symbols with the Symbol Editor. The file name extension is .sym. You can also use symbols in .dwg format.

By default, Tekla Structures stores symbol files in the folder ..\Environments\common\symbols.
