 and moved the mouse over the Color set command, the command stayed highlighted even when you moved the mouse away from the command. This has now been fixed.

TTSD-14041 Import, export, interoperability Point cloud density issue with scaled point clouds has been fixed.
TTSD-15992 Import, export, interoperability In DWG export, there is now a new check to see if files can be written to before the export starts. You are also prompted to close the files. If an exported file already exists, a dialog box is displayed asking if you want to overwrite the existing files.
TTSD-20216 Import, export, interoperability With the IFC2x3 export using the Coordination  and Steel Fabrication model view definition, the beams and columns that have a fitting plane at both ends are shorter than in the model. The error does not occur when line cuts are used instead or only one fitting is used.  This has now been fixed.
TTSD-20772 Import, export, interoperability In IFC export, the length of a hole is now fixed to be material thickness plus the tolerance value.

TTSD-22227 Drawings Non-solid items are now shown correctly in drawings also when they are clipped with the view restriction box.
TTSD-22317 Drawings Sometimes in a drawing with a custom template and small section views, all surface treatments were not properly drawn in all of the views. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22365 Drawings Sub-assembly welds in GA drawings now follow the same setting as the main assembly welds. There is no separate option to control sub-assembly welds in GA drawings.
TTSD-22391 Drawings Rebar sets in drawings were not working correctly if drawings were cloned. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-23252 Drawings Slanted symbols are now correctly printed and exported

TTSD-20112 System and options Tekla Structures no longer crashes when trying to select a material if the matdb.bin file is missing from the currently used environment folder.
TTSD-21567 Tekla Model Sharing In Tekla Model Sharing, profiles with a .clb file as a subtype were not previously shared correctly. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22212 Tekla Model Sharing In Tekla Model Sharing, canceling the start sharing was not possible during packet creation. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22652 Tekla Model Sharing In Tekla Model Sharing, read in performance has been improved.
TTSD-23046 Tekla Model Sharing Previously, if Tekla Structures crashed or if the Tekla Structures process was somehow forced to exit during write out, this could result in missing drawing files. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22045 Reinforcement In some cases, rebar segment lengths were reported with slight inaccuracy. This has now been improved.
TTSD-17047 Modeling The silhouette edges are drawn correctly again for high accuracy hollow profiles when XS_DISPLAY_FILLET_EDGES is set to FALSE.
TTSD-17887 Modeling If you need to reset pour unit contents and relations defined using the Calculate pour units command and/or the Add to pour unit command, you can now use the following commands in Quick Launch:
  • Reset all pour unit relations
  • Reset all manually assigned pour unit relations
  • Reset all pour unit relations except manual assignments
The first two commands have a dialog box where you confirm the command. This is because you cannot undo the commands.
TTSD-21481 Modeling Previously, selecting two bolts and right-clicking caused Tekla Structures to crash. This happened when the first part you had selected was a cast-in-place part. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22524 Modeling Previously, when the Ortho tool was active, the snapping distances were incorrectly rounded. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22080 Analysis and design In a Tekla Model Sharing model, when you read in changes that included an analysis model, and an autosaved model was created after read in and the model then reopened without saving, the analysis model could sometimes be lost. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22656 Analysis and design Previously, when a user had created an analysis model in a multi-user model and another user saved the model, this new analysis model was not visible for either user in the Analysis & Design Model dialog box. This has now been fixed.
TSAC-2485 Core The Dimensioning Rule Properties dialog box had many texts that were not translated but showed the string ID albl_... This has now been fixed.
TSAC-1710 Tools and components Rebar Coupler and Anchor Tools: Previously, the assembly structure was broken when a coupler was created as a custom part and you attached the rebar to another part after the couplers were created.
Note that if the assembly hierarchy is already broken, you need to explode the cast unit, or remove the extra part from the cast unit, and update the coupler once to get the couplers added to the correct cast unit.
TSAC-2268 Tools and components In Rebar shape manager, it was not possible to include any of the ‘Leg to leg’ (D1:2), ‘Along leg’ (K3:1) nor ‘Off from leg’ (H3:1) distances in a rule formula. The formula value was not correctly evaluated and thus the rule result was never true and the OK button was not enabled. This has now been fixed.
TSAC-2602 Tools and components Design points imported from a point file did not have a correct shape according to the shape which was set in the Settings dialog box in Layout manager. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-12860 Tools and components The contextual toolbar profiles are now fetched from external environment firm folders along with the users' local profile folder. These external profiles can be loaded in, but any changes will still be saved in the users' local folder as new profiles.
TTSD-23434 Tools and components In Tekla Model Sharing models, using Organizer or some other .NET tools could previously cause errors at write out when using the Project viewer role. This has now been fixed.
TTSD-22146 Numbering Tekla Structures no longer crashes when renumbering objects.
TTSD-13217 User interface When copying properties in the property pane, the check marks of the properties that you are copying now stay selected.
TTSD-21806 User interface Previously, when you clicked a selection or snap switch button, and then clicked another selection or snap switch button, the button you had clicked first also stayed selected for some time. This happened when a firm or project folder was mapped to a network drive and the network connection was slow. Now this has been fixed.
TTSD-22618 User interface Previously, if you used ft (decimal) length units and selected a bolt group, the property pane could be empty. Also, if you changed the unit setting to use ft (decimal) while the property pane was open, Tekla Structures sometimes crashed. Now the property pane properly shows the properties of the bolts.
TSAC-2277 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) Export Unitechnik (79): You can now export the means of transportation information using the new option option Transport type on the SLABDATE block data specification tab.
TSAC-2337 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) BVBS Export: Now the exported circular and spiral rebars get the arc inner radius instead of the center-line radius.
This value is inquired from report property DIM_R, and calculated from the rebar geometry if the DIM_R is missing.
TSAC-2390 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) Export Unitechnik (79): Production thicknesses of double wall shells are now calculated so that the 1st shell thickness reports sub-assembly thickness including braced girders, and the 2nd shell reports complete cast unit thickness regardless of the chosen dialog box option.  This is to ensure that the production thickness values comply with the curing chamber slot maximum height.
TSAC-2446 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) BVBS Export: When multiple segments of rebar are in 0-degree bendings then is exported as the continuous straight section.
TSAC-2450 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) BVBS Export: The user-defined bending roll diameter can now be controlled with the BVBS_BENDING_ROLL UDA.
TSAC-2514 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) Export EliPlan file (68): Cuts created at diagonally cut slabs no longer affect the calculation of L1 and L2 values.
TSAC-2610 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) Export Unitechnik (79): Production thickness export for double walls has been changed. With the option Cast unit width the cast unit thickness is exported for both shells.
TSAC-2612 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) Export Unitechnik (79): It is now possible to export exposition class using the new option Exposure class on the SLABDATE data block specification tab.
TSAC-2614 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) Export Unitechnik (79): Reinforcing bars exported as embeds now have the bendings exported with correct projected geometry.
TSAC-2644 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) Export Unitechnik (79): The embed recognition has been improved in cases where both double wall shells have the same hierarchy level in the assembly.
TSAC-2690 Import, export, interoperability (concrete) Export Unitechnik (79): Data is now read correctly from the Unitechnik Mountpart tab in the user-defined attribute properties for steel parts.
