Auto splitter: In cases involving complex geometry, such as a variable height bridge deck, Auto splitter sometimes miscalculated bar lengths. This issue has now been fixed.

Wall layout: Previously, walls shifted when the work plane was placed on the wall layout. This issue has now been fixed.

Cold rolled overlap (1): Previously, the component was not working correctly when the secondary parts had a ZPURLIN profile. This issue has now been fixed.

Cold rolled overlap (1): Previously, when the stay angle was defined, the bottom bolts from the overlap were removed. This issue has now been fixed.

Cold rolled overlap (1): Previously, stay plates were created in an incorrect location in some situations. This issue has now been fixed.

Unfold surface (21): Previously, there was a gap between unfolded plates in some situations. This issue has now been fixed.

Cold rolled overlap (1): Previously, some bolts from the overlap were missing when different stay type options were selected. This issue has now been fixed.

Haunch (40): Previously, when using the Cut at upper end haunch option on the Haunch tab, the position of stiffeners was not correct. This issue has now been fixed.

Haunch (40): Previously, when switching between a profile haunch and welded plates haunch, the position of compression stiffeners was changing. This issue has now been fixed.

Full depth S (185): Previously, the cut for bolt clearance was created when it was not needed. This caused problems in numbering. Now this issue has been fixed.

Haunch (40): Weld #4 is now used as a weld between the closure plate and the haunch profile. Previously, weld #8 was incorrectly used in this case.

Stringer stanchion stiff (69): Previously, the component was not always working correctly with different rotations of the secondary part. This issue has now been fixed.

Stiffened end plate (27): Previously, some shear tab chamfers were created with an incorrect default size. This issue has now been fixed.

You can now change the IFC entity for rebars. Previously, this was not possible.

Previously, Export TrimBIM was not working correctly when Location by was set to Work plane. This has now been fixed.

Earlier, when showing properties by value in the property pane, the Additional matches section could show an IFC_ENTITY_OVERRIDE property that is not supposed to be modified, making it easy for users to make a mistake. This issue has now been fixed, and now these kinds of properties are not available in the property pane editor.

IFC property sets: IFC property set names are no longer limited to being unique. Now multiple property sets can be created with the same name.

IFC4 export: Previously, some properties (Revision property, DRAWING.REVISION, DRAWING .ASSEMBLY, and DRAWING.CAST_UNIT) were not exported in the IFC4 export. This issue has been fixed.

Point clouds: Viewing a large point cloud with the smallest possible point size caused excessive memory consumption. This issue has now been fixed.

Previously, Tekla Structures closed unexpectedly while importing sketched profiles as .uel files in some specific cases. This issue has now been fixed.

IFC4 export: Previously, custom properties derived from assembly hierarchy were not exported through the IFC4 export. This issue has been fixed.

Template Editor: Grid density changes and changes involving image locations could distort images in Template Editor. This issue has now been fixed.

Template Editor: Color override in a row rule did not work for filled circles. This issue has now been fixed.

Pull-out pictures for bent rebar meshes: The pull-out pictures for bent rebar meshes sometimes showed wrong dimensions and were skewed. The problem was caused by the modification of the input point handles for the meshes, and that has now been fixed. The Diagnose model and Repair model commands will now identify and fix the problem in the existing bent mesh objects.

Dimensions for pull-out pictures for bent mesh: An advanced option, XS_REBAR_​BENT_​MESH_​PULLOUT_​DIMENSIONS_​INCLUDE_​LONGITUDINAL_​BARS, has been added to control whether longitudinal bars are taken into account in the dimensions shown in a rebar pull-out picture for a bent mesh. Set this advanced option to TRUE to take into account the longitudinal bars, and FALSE to ignore them. FALSE is the default value. This advanced option affects pull-out pictures in marks and templates.

This advanced option is located in the Drawing properties category of the Advanced options dialog.

Template Editor: Sometimes the report template output fails when the rule result for a row is PageBreak(). This issue has now been fixed.

Template Editor: Sometimes when a report template had rows with combine actions set to both Distinct and Combine, the output would be empty. This issue has now been fixed.

In graphical templates, multiline text objects were not drawn correctly when they were rotated. This issue has now been fixed.

HTML reports: Sometimes rows in html reports were output to the same line. This issue has now been fixed.

Rebar pull-out picture and marking: Previously, dimensions were not created correctly for some specific bent shapes. This issue has now been fixed.

Previously, when the placing method for level marks was set to Free in a drawing and the drawing was used in a multidrawing, the level mark positions were not updated correctly in the multidrawing when you moved the marks in the original drawing. This issue has now been fixed. The level marks are placed in multidrawings exactly as they are in the original drawing.

Symbols are now positioned correctly in drawing templates. Previously, symbols were occasionally drawn slightly off from the correct location due to inaccuracies in the placement calculation.

New settings for bending radius in rebar_config.inp

There are two new parameters, PullOutBendingRadiusDimensionUnit and PullOutBendingRadiusPrefix, in rebar_config.inp:

PullOutBendingRadiusDimensionUnit 

PullOutBendingRadiusDimensionUnit defines the unit to be used in the bending radius text in the pull-out. The options are:
0=auto
1=mm
2=cm
3=m
4=inch
5=foot and inch
6=cm or m

If PullOutBendingRadiusDimensionUnit is not set, mm is by default used for metric and inch for imperial. If PullOutBendingRadiusAsMultiplier is set to 1, it takes precedence, and PullOutBendingRadiusDimensionUnit has no impact.

PullOutBendingRadiusPrefix 

PullOutBendingRadiusPrefix defines the prefix to be used in the bending radius text in the pull-out. If it is not set, it will be defaulted to dBR=. If it is set to be empty, no prefix will be output.

The format and precision of the radius dimensions are defined by the existing settings in PullOutDimensionFormat and PullOutDimensionPrecision.

Previously, Layout editor in drawings could stop working when you tried to move a template that no longer existed. This issue has now been fixed.

In Layout editor in drawings, when you excluded a template from a layout, trying to replace the template caused an error. This issue has now been fixed. 

Dragging marks in a drawing is now faster than before in models where rebar sequence numbering is used.

Merging bolt hole marks: Earlier, it was possible to merge manually bolt hole marks for bolts with different oversized holes. This issue has now been fixed, and merging bolt hole marks with different oversized holes is no longer possible.

Previously, Tekla Structures stopped working when performing numbering on a straight bar that had a custom hook with a 0 angle. This issue has now been fixed.

The reliability of closing Tekla Structures has been improved.

Tekla Model Sharing: Now the remaining disk space is checked before a model is read in, and the read in process is stopped if there is not enough disk space.

Tekla Model Sharing: Previously, when you excluded a model from the sharing service via the File menu, the confirmation message was not displayed. This issue has been fixed.

For short curved rebar groups, there were slight inaccuracies in the inner and outer arc radii and other arc dimensions in rebar shape recognition and in Rebar shape manager. This issue has now been fixed.

In some environments, the value is saved in the XML file with a comma (,) as the decimal separator when you edit the weight in the shape catalog. Tekla Structures cannot read the value because it only supports a period (.) as the decimal separator. This issue has now been fixed.

Previously, the calendar icon and popup message for usage licenses were not displayed when Tekla Structures was started via Tekla Launcher. This has now been fixed. Additionally, the organization name is now correctly displayed in the About pane across all launch scenarios.

Previously, APPL_ERROR_LOG was not working for log file naming. This has now been fixed.

Now picking a point to inquire the coordinates no longer modifies the project base point unintentionally.

When using Tekla Structures with Qnect Listener active, numbering commands were disabled. This has now been fixed, and there are no longer any conflicts between Tekla Structures and Qnect.

Previously, when modifying the dimension value of a contour plate by entering the value, the opposite side might also be modified, even when the adjacent and modified sides were not orthogonal. This issue has been fixed.

If a custom property was implemented so that the get function modified model objects, using this custom property in a representation filter could cause Tekla Structures to stop responding. This issue has now been fixed.

Batch editor is now faster when handling hundreds or thousands of items. Note that if there are more than 1000 items, the properties of the assemblies will not be displayed.

An issue has been fixed to prevent inconsistent adaptivity with child object handles that are positioned central to the modified parent object.

Earlier, in some situations, when deleting certain macros, Tekla Structures displayed a message about a critical error. This issue has now been fixed.

Crash related to rare characters in folder names when opening Template Editor has been fixed.

Phases that are not valid are now detected better when copying objects from another model.

Building hierarchy: Previously, the default value of the Top elevation property for new buildings was incorrectly set to 0.0. This resulted in zero-height buildings when you created a new building using the default values. The default Top elevation has now been restored to its original value of 20000 mm.

Trimble Connect: When XS_FIRM and XS_PROJECT are set to a Trimble Connect folder path, local sync files will no longer be deleted if there is an API failure or outage. However, if the folder does not exist in Trimble Connect, the files will be deleted.

Previously, multiple windows might have been opened each time that you double-clicked a plug-in in the model. This issue has now been fixed.

The number of unnecessary log entries generated by the property pane has been reduced.

In the property pane, when filtering properties using the search, the entries in the additional matches group did not always enable the Modify button. This issue has been fixed.

In the Close Tekla Structures and Save Model dialog that is shown when a user is working offline and their computer's clock is inaccurate by more than 5 minutes, the width of the button was too small for the length of the text in some languages, such as Russian and German. The button width has now been fixed.

Sometimes, Tekla Structures could freeze on startup. This has now been fixed.

Previously, in very rare cases, Tekla Structures might have unexpectedly stopped working when setting a viewpoint. This has now been fixed.

An issue was fixed where nesting specific components, such as adding component A inside component B and vice versa, could cause Tekla Structures to crash. The logic has been updated to prevent this circular behavior and ensure model stability.

Previously, applications and plug-ins that use model history (history.db), such as Design group numbering, could cause critical errors when run on models saved using the Save as command. This issue has now been fixed.

Tekla Warehouse: Security has been improved through minor updates.

Previously, the message "Numbering rebar sequences..." remained visible on the status bar after numbering was done. Now the message is removed when the Numbering preview dialog is opened.

DSTV/NC: Earlier, when exporting a polybeam plate having a length larger than width and advanced option XS_USE_NEW_PLATE_DESIGNATION set to a value requiring to switch the width and length, the bending lines were created too short. This issue has now been fixed.

STEP/IGES export: Cold rolled L profiles are now successfully exported in the STEP format.
