Hi Grzegorz, thank you for the great workshop you had :).
Now that the rebar line position feature has been added, I would like to request a function to add rebar dimensioning as well. We need the rebar dimensioning to show the range of the rebar group and other info.
It cannot be done in macro since we have to click to provide the location. This is a lot of manual work since each bar group needs to be click to add its dimension.

Hi,

I am having issues getting the correct orient of a section view.

I've tried both View CS and Display CS, and I get the same Orient.

I tried all setting I know from Tekla but I get the same issue every time.

The script takes a view created by Tekla and creates a section view.

Thanks!

Hi,
there is some bug with drawing object parameter. I couldn't select it with multiple selection but right now I can't even select/move or delete this component.

Hi All

Thanks for your astonishing work!!! Well done.

Can you access these parameters ?

Regards

When using this component in Rhino 8, it throws an exception and doesnt work.

I built the project from source and the problem seems to be at line nr. 23 in FindVisibleEdgesComponent.cs.
"curve.Simplify()" method returns null curve, which causes an exception.
If i remove the line the component works fine, but probably more permanent solution is needed.
Maybe something like

Curve tempCurve =  curve.Simplify(CurveSimplifyOptions.All, RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.ModelAbsoluteTolerance, RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.ModelAngleToleranceRadians);
if(!tempCurve is null) curve = tempCurve;

Hi I had tried all methods to install the Grasshopper-Tekla Drawing Link for Tekla 2024 but not install and please request to post step by step installation method

I was trying to use the view type and view name to extract all the similar views from different drawings. I realized that the name in GH doesn't match with what I have in the drawing space. I think it was the original name from when it was created and became its internal name. It's hard to tell which view is which with this type of name, so I would like to request a way to extract the view label value of the current view.

Hello Grzegorz,

One issue I've come upon is just a UI issue. It would be great if your application can - Stay on top. Running the application has not been a problem, but it is hectic trying to always make it come back into the window.

Hi, I hope this is the right place to post. I'm using Tekla 2021 and 2022 and I've encountered this issue for both versions. The same errors showed up for Arrow/ Font/ Mark/ Text Attributes. Other Attributes definitions work fine. Is this a known problem?

I found two issues relating to reinforcement in drawing but maybe they apply for other elements too. I can't post the model so I took some screenshots of the issue. I have this section view.

I'm using the Objects from view definition to get the drawing reinforcements in this view.

The All objects mode worked as expected and got all the reinforcements (changed to red lines in the pic)

And when I used Only Visible mode, it's missing 1 reinforcement element (1 is still green)

I've tested with some other similar section views and I got the same issue. One view couldn't find any reinforcement with only visibility mode despite being visible on the view.

Another issue is the rebar attribute use the first value by default if there's no input. I have not locally defined any values. I was expecting the attributes to only change according to the input and any attributes without inputs would remain the same. Is this by design perhaps?

Hi Greg. Thank you for your work on tekla drawing link. Its amazing.
I want to make scripts that run on selected drawing and hides specified parts from views.
How can i do the function Hide object from View/Drawing.

Hi!
This is a very good set of commands for Grasshopper.
Tell me please: do you plan to add a Curved dimension (orthogonal reference lines), Curved dimension (radial reference lines), Radial dimension and others dimensions in the future?

The "Reinforcement Properties" does not work with RebarSet. Is it a bug or a limitation?

I created lines for multiple views using line definition. With 1 view it's ok but multiview has a problem. The lines are at the wrong locations. Sometimes it's wrong number of lines too?

Hi,
My issue apears when I try to create section views using Section View component from Model View (In this case Top View).
When i set view properties input for Attributes Name in Model View (MV) component it overrides my View Attributes (VA) input in Section View* component.

I can't set different Detailed object level settings for my section views becasue View Properties template is taken from my Top View.

Hi Grzegorz, amazing work and webinar!

Do you plan to implement imperial unit support?

I did few test and it is only working with millimeters.

Thanks!

Hi there. I would like to request a feature for rotating view in drawing. I would like to rotate the view so certain elements in view is horizontal

Hi!

I don't know if it just me, or it seems that the Create Section View does not use the given View Name parameter, only gives the view name as the next letter/number that would be available.

Hi Greg,
Please add component to control and modify View Attributes in Drawing
In your View Tab I see View Properites
How we can get all Tags attributes and can not modify the view attributes
Thanks

Created Model View(ConstructModelViewComponent) in grasshopper doesnt work properly with add model view to drawing component(CreateModelViewComponent).

Eroor message : 1. Solution exception:Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Could you provide some examples, such as annotating a steel plate or concrete slab with a special-shaped cross-section?
more .gh files needed
THK!!!

in addition, if your plugin loads with errors, please right-click on the file and view the bottom of the properties menu.

The tree structure of the Related Object definition does not match the tree structure of the input

Hi Me again.

Just been through all of your videos and still cant figure out on how to use "Part Mark"

Can you please explain what do i require to input in "Attr"

Regards

Hello!
Please tell me, can you add a "Curved section view" component to Grasshopper-TeklaDrawingLink in the future? It is very important for me

Do you think it is possible to create a component that would make a cut along a curve in Tekla? That is, not in an arc, as Curved section view does. I mean a cut along a complex curve, when the curve consists of many arcs and straight sections

Hi Me again.

Is there a way to modify these fields ?

Regards

Hi

I have created functions that should create marks on reinforcement but it seems to work somewhat irregularly. I have created different pre-defined mark settings, but all markings are created with one marking setting even if I have specifically determined that each marking uses different setting. And sometimes no marks are created even if the input can recognize reinforcements. I think I'am using the tool incorrectly but could you give an example on how this component should be used?

I'm using the Objects from view definition with getting all views in the drawing. The key list and the drawing objects doesn't match with each other. The number of drawings match the tree structure of the keys but not with the tree structure of the drawing objects.

The drawing objects seem to be organized by key but is missing a lot of items.

Hi

I was following your youtube tutorial Dimensioning part I. I inserted all the three needed inputs but my component keeps adding two dimension lines for some reason. I had to add python command to delete the second one. The Dim component seems very simple as it self but I don't understand why it keeps adding the duplicate dimension line.

Does anyone happen to understand the reasoning behind this.

The component receives 1 view, 2 points and 1 line.

Thanks for the updates by the way. Great work and amazing tool that I have already made great progress with in my project.

Hi amazing updates so far. I have a request to extract rebar group visible lines from drawing and then be able to modify its location if the visibility mode is customized. It's very time-consuming move the line for each group.

Hello. Could you shed more light on the loop component and how it could be used?

Again, thanks for the continuous updates on this tool! Very much appreciated!

Hi Grzegorz!

Is there any way to create single-part drawings using your Drawing Link? I cannot find such component. If there's any walkaround that problem, please let me know, if not - that would be useful to implement in the future :)

Best regards,
Adam Bednarek

I've created a script that creates dimensions for a simple single-part drawing, but one that Tekla itself cannot handle properly. When I use "Active drawing" component as a component that indicates which drawing is to be edited, everything works as intended. However, due to the fact that I've got hundreds of drawings to edit, I've tried using "Selected Drawings on List" component to speed things up. It does create some dimensions to correct points, however their location is all over the place. The location of dimension line is define relative to the part - for example: horizontal dimension is located at an extreme y coordinate of a part + some fixed value (let's say 200). As far as dimensions create, the script gives an error on the output - dimension line component - "Object reference not set to an instance of an object", while not printing any error "in the middle". If it's helpful for you to have a .gh file, hit me up and I'll share it.

Hi,
first of all, amazing job with this TeklaDrawing Link! This is an absolute game changer.
I have an issue with text right alignment. I can't find any way to input this kind of parameter, but in the output there is a default value Alignment: Left. Is is possible to change alignment with your plugin?

i hava more then100 drawings，which maybe have the same section but have different length or cut 45°。
i wanna to sort them by uda，creat a multi drawing，so that， i can sort them by move the different in to a different distance。

Hi Greg,

Grasshopper Application testing, observations:

1. File path input not showing up in UI in Tekla (comparing to Tekla Component from Seb)
2. Text from textboxes not wrapping in UI in Tekla (comparing to Tekla Component from Seb)
3. No Apply button so apply current settings, if you accidently close application you have start over from scratch unless you saved
4. No "Properties" on right click.. not sure if it matter, just adding it as an observation, might just be a Tekla thing anyway.
5. Dropdown lists are longer than they need to be? (comparing to Tekla Component from Seb)
6. Application hides behind the Tekla main window when selecting or making the Tekla main window active. Should probably stay on top of Tekla window.

Hello!

I have Rhino 7 and Tekla 2021. When I try to install any of the releases and drag them on the grasshopper canvas, then nothing happens. Nothing shows up in the libraries folder either.

Hi grzegorz! First of all I want to thank you for the extraordinary work you are doing. Then I would like to ask you if there is a way to insert dimension marks for reinforcement bars in the drawings or if you plan to implement this functionality. I would also like to ask you if there is a way to filter the reinforcement bars by position number. For example, if I had several groups of reinforcement bars and wanted to create a dimension mark only for reinforcement bars with position numbers starting with "V", is it possible to do this?
Thank you!

how to create mulitdrawing

Thanks Greg for your work and great plugins
New work era have began :)

I am testing generating CU view with preset settings, but grasshopper anyway return view with wrong settings.
Preset settings in green and how the view should look if I generate it in Tekla drawing mode.
Can you check please what could be an issue?

Hi, I was looking for a way to move a lot of marks in view but I couldn't find a way. Will there be a feature to edit the placing location of existing drawing objects like marks, dimensions, text symbols?

I'm not sure if this is a bug or an issue with the company PC, but the application doesn't work with only Rhino 8 installed. After installing Rhino 7, everything works fine, and I can then switch to Rhino 8 from the drop-down menu without any issues.

the official version， bake to tekla by right click。

i found your new version used this

if it's possible to create the single Battery

,so that we can create the conpenment automatic by change value。

without right click

Just wanted to commend you for the hard work in putting these GH components together for the community. I've personally, made great use of them to automate many of my tasks.

Thank you for the hard work! Is there anything in store for this work? I know that you've been working with Trimble Connect's API.

I'm filtering all the views from different drawings of the same view type (for example TopView) and the view and drawings frame geometries are extracted. However, the orientation of the view frame looks wrong. The definition use the same rotation as that of the current drawing (see pictures). I've tried it for different view types and models and still the same behavior so I think this is a bug
