Administrator's release notes: Arial is the new default font in drawings
Before, the default font setting for texts, value fields, and marks in drawings was Arial Narrow in the Common and Default environments. Now, the default font is Arial.
The reason for replacing the Arial Narrow font is that it is not always delivered in the Windows installation and might be missing from the users' computers.
For more information about this change, see Other improvements in drawings in the Tekla Structures 2024 release notes.
Update your environment for the font change
If you use a custom environment, and the Arial Narrow font is not installed on all users' computers, update your environment for the font change. If all users have the Arial Narrow font installed, there is no need to change the defaults.
-
Change "Arial Narrow" to "Arial" in all files in your environment.
For example, you can use the Find in Files option in Notepad++ to replace "Arial Narrow" with "Arial" in all files in your environment folder.
