Wall to wall connection: Longitudinal bars between the connectors are not created automatically anymore when you have selected No connectors as the connector type.

Wall layout connector: The cast unit type and the pour phase of the turning corner part are now set according to the main part of the connection.

Wall to wall connection: You can now add multiple wireloops (component connectors) on the Connectors tab. The number of wireloops is defined by the number of offsets.

Wall to wall connection: The longitudinal support bar is now correctly centered when the connector offsets are not the same.

Sandwich wall window: On the Picture tab, there is a new setting Swap sides when only one layer that you can use to enable swapping the side of the window frame when the input object contains only one layer.

Sandwich wall window: Previously, when there were two insulation layers, the cut of the other insulation layer was 1 mm too big. This issue has now been fixed.

Concrete console (110), Concrete console (111): Previously, with certain dimensions, the corbel polygon was created with an extra point, overlapping with another point. This caused problems when the corbel polygon was shifted or the orientation was modified. Now the extra point is not created anymore.

Wall to wall connection: Edge shape offsets are now correctly created. Previously, a 60 mm correction was incorrectly added.

Detailing manager: The dialog box is now optimized for 4K resolution with scaling set to 150 %.

Wall to wall connection: Previously, the main part wall was stretched too much when the walls were not in an angle of 0° or 90°. This issue has now been fixed.

Wall to wall connection: On the Connectors tab, for L-wall and T-wall connections, there is a new option to select additional rebar shapes for the main wall connector.

Concrete console (111): The depth of the recess cut at the beam bottom is now correct also when the beam is inclined.

Rectangular column reinforcement (83): Side bars 1 now have the correct bending radius.

Reinforced concrete stair (95): On the Bar L tab, you can now define the concrete cover thickness separately for the last two rebars.

Embedded anchors (008): On the Placement tab, mirroring now has three additional options that you can use to rotate anchors and horizontal bars based on the lifting direction.

Wall layout: In some cases, changing the state of the check box next to a layer name in the list of layers in the Wall layout dialog box could result in an exception when modifying the wall. This issue has now been fixed.
 

Edge and corner reinforcement (62): Anchor lengths can now be separately defined on the Edge bars tab. In Overlap lengths, there are now new L4 and L5 lengths available for defining the anchoring length of edge bars in an inner corner. If you do not enter any value for L4 and L5, the values of L2 and L3 are in use.

Concrete console (110): Previously, in some situations, the component could stop working in large models. This issue has now been fixed.

Braced girder (88)(89): Previously, in some situations, certain combinations of side bar shape, bar diameter, and radius could lead to unending calculation. This issue has now been fixed.

Braced girder creation (88) (89): On the Parts tab, Work plane position now has a new option Top in form face that defines the parallel Up direction for the created braced girders.

Convert to layout component now works again in Tekla Structures 2022.

Concrete console (110): Previously, rebar sets could be copied from the input part when you made any changes to the component. This issue has now been fixed.

Sandwich wall window: Duplicate cut parts are not created in the top detail anymore.
 

Gusset+ T: Previously, when you set weld #4 between the secondary part and the brace connection to Yes on the Cut T welds tab, several overlapping welds were created. This issue has now been fixed.

Previously, when placing surface treatment attributes and the product_finishes.dat file in the XS_FIRM folder, the No paint area component did not load the surface treatment subtype correctly. This issue has now been fixed.

Tube gusset (20): Previously, the length of the gusset plate edge that was perpendicular to the uppermost brace and to the lowest brace was incorrectly applied in the component. This issue has now been fixed.

Joining plates (14): Previously, welds between the stiffeners and the main or secondary part were not created. This issue has now been fixed.

CMF Cold rolled sleeved (120): Washers have been updated for the firewall option.

Welded to top flange (147): Previously, welds number 8 and 9 were not created at all. This issue has now been fixed.

Hadley Group (UltraZED): Old VR cleat profiles have now been removed. RBM profile weights and dimensions have been updated.
 

CMF Cold rolled cleat (101): The dimensioning of the bolted (non-riveted) window trimmer cleat was fixed.

CMF Mezzanine floor connection (149) is now available in the Applications & components catalog

Previously, when you added manually created stanchions and Railings (77) component to a custom component and used the Default or Use all stanchion selection option, Tekla Structures might have stopped working unexpectedly, depending the content of the custom component. This has now been fixed.

We recommend to use the Use selected option in the case when all selected stanchions are to be used, even though in a well-define case the Default option produces identical results.

IFC2x3 export: The export consumed excess amount of memory on each export without releasing it. Only reopening Tekla Structures released the memory. This issue has now been fixed, and the export no longer consumes excess amount of memory.

Import from Tekla Structural Designer: When transferring design intent reinforcement, in some cases as a result of AutoDesign, no reinforcement was created in wall or column bases, and the whole import process was stopped.
This issue has now been fixed and the import process will now be completed skipping those bases with no reinforcement.

IFC2x3 export: Previously, when  you used the export type Steel fabrication view, and the weld type was None or the weld size was 0 (welds used as "glue" for creating assemblies), the welds were reported as failures in the export log. Now, if the weld type is None or the size is 0, the welds are not included in the export.

Importing .step files: When you import a .step file to the shape catalog and then use the shape for an item in Tekla Structures, the object rendering now works correctly.

IFC2x3 export: The export of the radial grids has been improved.

IFC4 export : The export of the rebar sets inside the rebar assemblies now writes the bar properties into the IFC file. Previously, some properties were missing.

IFC4 export: Reinforcing bars belonging to a rebar assembly are no longer exported if the Assemblies and Reinforcing bars options are not selected in the IFC4 export dialog box.

IFC4 export:  The IFC4 export Location by option Work plane now works. This option exports the model relative to the current work plane coordinate system. 

IF4 and IFC2x3 export: The exports now handle the project UDAs correctly.

IFC4 export: Rebar sets are now exported correctly with a subtype defined in the PredefinedType property. Now SPACEBAR is reported as PredefinedType= USERDEFINED and ObjectType= SPACEBAR, since it is not supported in the IFC4.0 export.

IFC4 export: The mapping of the classification properties to IFC has been fixed, and now it produces similar output to the IFC2x3 export. There is one exception: the UDA's name is written as IFCClassification.Name instead of Source.

Export drawings as DWG/DXF: The export did not work properly if imperial scale was used. This issue has now been fixed.

IFC4 export: The curved beam export sometimes produced incorrect geometry. This issue has now been fixed.

IFC4 export: In certain situations, when you export rebar sets, the Pset_ReinforcingBarCommon properties were missing in the exported file. This issue has now been fixed.

IFC export: The following entity types have been added in the Property Set Definitions dialog box for both IFC2x3 and IFC4 export, with the supported Tekla Structures object properties:
IFCBearing
IFCBridgePart
IFCChimney

IFC export: When parts, assemblies, pour objects, or pour units are overwritten as IFCRamp, they are now correctly exported to IFC4 and IFC2x3.

IFC2x3 export: Now binding the IFC entity IfcStair to parts is supported in additional property sets.

Reference models: Previously, when you clicked the Show button (eye icon) for a reference model group, a drop down listing all reference models in the group was shown. When there were a lot of reference model groups, clicking the Show button for each group one by one sometimes caused an application error.

Now, when you click the Show button for a group, the list of the included reference models is no longer displayed, and without this functionality, the application error no longer occurs.

IFC4 export: Rebar assembly rebars are no longer exported as a rebar set. Instead, the rebar assembly export is obeying the  XS_EXPORT_IFC_REBASET_INDIVIDUAL_BARS advanced option value. When this advanced option is set to FALSE, the rebar set groups inside rebar assemblies are exported, and when TRUE, the individual bars are exported.

IFC4 export: The export now works correctly with both of the XS_EXPORT_IFC_REBARSET_INDIVIDUAL_BARS values, TRUE and FALSE, when you export the selected rebar set (orphan or not).

IFC2x3 and IFC4 export: When you exported rebar set groups (XS_EXPORT_IFC_REBARSET_INDIVIDUAL_BARS=FALSE), UDAs were not exported correctly with the exported group. Now the UDAs set at different levels (for the whole rebar set or for the individual rebars) are exported correctly with the rebar set group.

IFC4 export: When a Tekla Structures part has been defined as IfcBearing, this is now shown in the exported IFC files.

IFC4 export: Plates and slabs with corner chamfer Dz1 and Dz2 values that are non-zero but same for all points are now exported correctly. 

IFC export: Rebar set modifier UDAs are now exported correctly to IFC4 and IFC2x3. This now works correctly both when exporting groups (XS_EXPORT_IFC_REBARSET_INDIVIDUAL_BARS=FALSE) and individual bars (XS_EXPORT_IFC_REBARSET_INDIVIDUAL_BARS=TRUE). Previously, the exported rebars would not have any UDA values when the UDA values were exported as a property set.

Import from Tekla Structural Designer: When transferring design intent reinforcement for the General slab type, the whole import process failed without any specific message in the process log.
This issue has now been fixed and the import process will now be completed with proper invalid material warnings and error log if applicable.

Reference models: Previously, some reinforcing bars might have been missing from an imported IFC reference model. This issue has now been fixed.

IFC2x3 export: A schema validation error occurred after you pressed the View button on the Advanced tab in the export dialog box to view property set definitions. This issue has now been fixed.

Trimble Connector: When exporting a model from Trimble Connector, sometimes the folder path could not be retrieved correctly from the Europe server. This issue has now been fixed.

Template Editor: In multi-screen setup, when the main screen is set to be lower than the other screens, switching the toolbar ON/OFF does not work. This issue has now been fixed.

Template Editor: In multi-screen setup, the dialog boxes always appeared on the main screen. This issue has now been fixed.

Template Editor: Selecting an attribute with a long full name (like ASSEMBLY.LOCATION_BREAKDOWN_STRUCTURE.LBS_FLOOR_
ELEVATION_BASEPOINT in a PART row) caused an application error in the Select attribute dialog box. This issue has now been fixed, and the maximum length allowed for the attribute in the dialog box is now 127 characters.

View-specific dimensioning: Now the Filter dimensioning method also works for rebars inside a rebar assembly.

Linking drawings now works more reliably.

Document manager: The document selections that you make in Document manager are now kept during the multi-user save. 

Multidrawings: Multidrawings no longer get extra marks that are not present in the original drawing. 

Multidrawings: Surface treatment is now correctly shown in single-part drawings in multidrawings.

Printing: If a drawing file name had an illegal character, it could not be printed. In this case, the problem was caused by the new line character "\n" included in the applied advanced option. The list of characters that Tekla Structures replaces with an underscore has been expanded. The new line character is now replaced by "_", and creating the PDF now succeeds.

Check the file naming conventions provided by Microsoft: "Naming Files, Paths, and Namespaces".

When dimensions were copied to a view that had been moved to another drawing, and XS_​SCALE_​COPIED_​OR_​MOVED_​OBJECTS_​IN_​DRAWINGS was set to TRUE, the dimensions were not shown in the reopened drawing. This issue has now been fixed.

Reference models in drawings: A triangle clipping support was added to make sure that the text triangles are correctly handled both inside and outside the drawing view boundary box or when they are crossed by the view boundary box.

FOG rendering: Drawing view frames were sometimes incorrectly visualized when using the FOG rendering option. This issue has now been fixed.

Fabrication drawings: With the fabrication drawing creation functionality, it is now possible to create cast unit drawings of steel embeds belonging to a cast unit also with the Precast concrete detailing license. This was not possible when the functionality was released to Tekla Structures version 2022.

Previously, using the Save as command did not sometimes work correctly if the original model was created in Tekla Structures 2017 or older. This has now been fixed.

When you try to reserve the next Write out while being offline, Tekla Model Sharing now shows a proper warning message instead of an Unhandled exception message.

Rebar sets: Individual bars and bar groups in rebar sets can now be selected by GUID when you use the Select by identifier command or the Model search toolbar.

Rebar sets: If a rebar set guideline or modifier contained a geometric segment that was shorter than 250 mm, the direction arrow was displayed pointing in the wrong direction. This issue has been fixed so that the arrow is in the correct direction and is reduced in size to fit the segment.

Rebar sets: Tekla Structures might unexpectedly stop working if the rebar set spacing offsets were too large for the guideline length and a spacing override with automatic offsets was applied to the rebar set. This issue has now been fixed and the offsets on the property modifier spacing are set to zero.

Rebar sets: Automatic bar grouping for rebar sets has been enhanced to merge groups of bars that become alike after rounding has been applied.

Rebar sets: In rebar set bar spacing, if the actual spacing value differed from the target spacing value by a large amount, then the actual value rather than the target value was reported for CC_TARGET. Also, any spacing override was ignored in this report property, instead the rebar set spacing was always used. This issue has now been fixed.

Rebar sets: An issue was fixed where the numbering of rebar set bars changed unnecessarily when new bars were added to the rebar set.

Rebar sets: A problem was fixed with rebar set property modifier spacing overrides. If the property modifier started at or beyond the start of the guideline, the direction of the spacing distribution was wrong. 
Also, negative start and end offsets now work with guidelines and property modifiers if Affect whole bar plane is set to Yes.

In complex rebar set cases, the advanced option XS_REBARSET_ENABLE_BAR_GROUPING_WHEN_SPACING_DIFFERS now works more reliably when set to FALSE.

Rebar sets: The center-to-center spacing values (shown by the template attributes starting with CC) are now all derived from the input values and are the spacings along the guideline. Previously, the values were calculated between bar geometry and were susceptible to inaccuracy in complex cases.

Rebar sets: Previously, if a rebar set or property modifier was manually attached to a concrete part, and then the concrete part was copied, the newly created rebar set or property modifier was still attached to the original part. If the part was copied multiple times, this resulted in duplicate rebar sets or property modifiers being created. This issue has now been fixed.

Rebar sets: An issue related to copying was fixed. This issue might occur if you copied a rebar set that was manually attached to a concrete part or that had a property modifier manually attached to a part, then undid the copying, and then copied the rebar set again.

Previously, when placing surface treatment attributes and the product_finishes.dat file in the XS_PROJECT or in the model folder, the No paint area component did not load the subtype of the surface treatment correctly. This has now been fixed.

Previously, if you modified a selection filter and clicked Apply or OK in the Selection Filter dialog box, standard was shown instead of blank for the applied selection filter on the Selecting toolbar. This issue has now been fixed.

Previously, when you used the Tab key to cycle through the different snap point options, it did not work correctly.
This has now been fixed, and the Tab key works correctly with the create commands.
 

Previously, when you copied a secondary steel part within its original assembly, the secondary part always became part of the assembly. This has now been prevented when the part has bolts or welds.

When objects.inp was edited by changing the user-defined attribute type after the values were set, the UDA values of the incorrect type were not reported correctly, and you could not fix them.

Now Diagnose & repair detects and fixes the the incorrect type by reverting the value to the default value.
 

You can now lock pour units using the Lock command.

Building hierarchy properties for building and level are now saved properly.

Building hierarchy: The Levels & hierarchies command is no longer available in File > Project properties. You can now find the commands related to building hierarchy on the Manage tab.

Building hierarchy: All the levels that you select in the table in the Building hierarchy dialog box are now deleted when you click the delete button. 

Previously, in some cases, when a selection filter was saved, Tekla Structures stopped working unexpectedly. Now, when you save a selection filter, it ignores folders and files with unknown character sets, and Tekla Structures keeps working. 

Building hierarchy: Unassigned spaces are now shown in the hierarchy tree structure in the Building hierarchy dialog box only if there are unassigned spaces in the model.
 

Previously, opening some 2016i and earlier models with 2017 and newer versions could fail with Conversion to runtime IDs failed message in log, caused by one or more illegal IDs in the database. This has now been fixed.

Non-geometrical updates, such as changing the bolt type from Site to Workshop, now mark bolts as modified.

NC/DSTV: Earlier, depending on how the bent plate was created, the exported KA block only showed short bending lines or sometimes no lines at all. This issue has now been fixed.

NC/DSTV: Earlier, when you used the DSTV export for a CC profile, depending on the bolt rotation, the BO block could be created on the front or back profile face, causing missing holes in certain viewers. This issue has now been fixed, and the BO block for such holes is always created on the back profile face.

NC/DSTV: Earlier, when you exported an I beam or an RHS beam with countersunk bolts going through both flanges, countersunk information was not written to the NC file. This issue has now been fixed.

NC/DSTV: Earlier, studs that were modeled on the back plane of a C profile were exported on the front plane. This issue has now been fixed.

Export Unitechnik (79): You can now specify a representation for the exported cutpart formers. The new Cutpart former setting is located on the Symbols tab, and the options are As corner symbols and As centerline. 

BVBS export: Rebar objects were in some cases evaluated as a 3D rebar in calculations. This issue has now been fixed.
