Modify drawing names and titles

Tekla Structures names the drawings according to the name given in the drawing properties. The drawing name is displayed in Document manager and in drawing and report templates. You can change the default drawing name when you create the drawing and in an existing drawing. In addition to the drawing name, you can give titles for your drawings. Tekla Structures shows the titles in Document manager and in drawing and report templates, and also in print output file names. You can define up to three titles.

Rename drawings through drawing properties

  1. In Document manager, right-click the drawing and select Properties.
  2. Enter the new name in the Name box.

    The maximum number of characters in 32.

  3. Click Modify.

    Close the Document manager and open it again to see the change.

  2. In Document manager, ensure that the edit switch is active.
  3. Click the Name data cell of the drawing whose name you wish to edit.

  4. Edit the drawing name.
    The drawing name changes immediately.
  5. Deactivate the edit switch .

Give titles to drawings

  1. In Document manager, right-click the drawing and select Properties.
  2. Enter the titles.
  3. Click Modify.

    Close Document manager and open it again to see the change.

Tip:

If you want to customize your print file names and use title values instead of drawing names in them, you can define that the title entered in this dialog is used in the print file name. To do this, enter the value %TPL:TITLE1% (or %TPL:TITLE2% or %TPL:TITLE3%) as the value for the advanced option XS_DRAWING_PLOT_FILE_NAME_G (or _W, _A, _M or _C depending on the drawing type) through File > Settings > Advanced options > Printing.

For more information, see Customize print file names and TITLE1..3.
