You can transfer customized information from a previous Tekla Structures version to the new Tekla Structures version.

1. If you have used project and firm folders to store customized files in a model using a previous Tekla Structures version, go to File menu > Settings > Advanced Options and check that the XS_FIRM , XS_PROJECT and XS_COMPANY_SETTINGS_DIRECTORY advanced options point to the folders where the customized files are located.
2. If you have not used project and firm folders to store customized files, you need to transfer the customized files manually to the new Tekla Structures version to use the information. Check at least the following:

   • Advanced options

   • Files related to templates, reports and drawings

   • Catalog files : profile catalog, material catalog, bolt catalog, bolt assembly catalog, rebar shape catalog

   • Conversion files

   • Extensions

     You need to re-install extensions for the new Tekla Structures version.

   • NC export settings

   • Printer catalog settings

   • User-defined attributes

   • Saved model object properties
