How do i get your set up?
Hey the quick launch worked for Grid Properties too!
Sir. In Tekla Structures, how can I place part profile and assembly marks at opposite ends of a beam or column in a GA (General Arrangement) drawing like that SDS2 does?
Great video, I will be trying this. I am trying to develop a solution. Thank you so much.
how can i add this kts tool to my tekla ?
stupid property pane consuming much more space, slow, anoying behaviour, in fact there is no advantage
Yep, the split command has had me scratching my head in the new version. I thought I was mis-keying or something like that. Glad to know I'm not crazy.
What factors/rules did you train the AI on to store the connections?
As always 😂 they adding the new features by breaking old ones.
@@bolek_lolek yes as much as I love Tekla, it has been a hard past few years.
Sir, How can we create and put a level symbol like inverted black triangle with level name on upper line and level below line
Chris, why bring it into Production when we do use the guids in combining? and in Production, we can compare it to the ABM as a feature. That can't be done if they are both in Production.
@@adelphia27 hey Todd. I wasn’t able to see GUIDS in action in combining. When I brought two kiss files in with a customer (I know kiss don’t have Guids) there was no change detection in combining. Ricky had mentioned something about how production allows you to automatically make updates and more control on the import but also mentioned if ABM marks are right that you can compare a combining run against Production run. Is there good videos demonstrating this whole process? I can’t import xml into combining so I probably need to make a special kiss export of the parts that don’t shorten the lengths?
Chris, you mention it in your video that the IFC can be brought in and that does handle GUIDS. However Todd (and this is a big however), everything in an ABM is going to change once the model is connected. So when you have hundreds or thousands of pieces in a revised ABM it is incredibly tedious and tough to actually wade through all of the changes to see what actually matters. I have clients that just throw their hands up and do it manually instead, and I can understand why. Plus, changes brought into combining do not uncombine the associated pieces in purchasing/inventory. So bringing it into production control is better from that perspective. There are repercussions for this though once you receive a release for fab.
I am learning a lot from you. I have a question about numbering. There are hundreds of columns in a project. When I perform numbering, I want same columns to have same number with different series. For example there are 5 same columns in different locations. I want these columns to have Cxxx-1,CXXX-2,Cxxx-3,Cxxx-4,Cxxx-5 instead of Cxxx for all five. In addition I saw on drawing with DS2 a format xxxC-1,xxxC-2,xxxC-3,xxxC-4,xxxC-5. Can we make this format with TEKLA?
@@archikim3803 assembly position format string in advanced options and some form of UDA to represent each individual assembly incremental order maybe?
You’re the man!
Great video, but how do you increase the size of the start and end point, as I have thus issue using 4k monitors these dots to be very small and the crosshair respectively?
Brilliant tutorial for beginners. Bless up!
I am so glad that we use metric system in Europe :) So much to clean up only for the measurements because the length of it. Beside of that great tuturials mate, keep up the good work and thank you.
You're right, this imperial system is very obsolete nowadays, perhaps they use calculator for simple operations like + or -, and its very hard to comprehend
Hi, Is there any Tekla structures 2024 online course/training you are working please?
I realy like the way you explain things. Clean logic and without anything unrelevant! 😀 Just curious, is it possible to have a component with other components inside? For exmaple, If I build a portal frame, I may name my compents according to its tectonic, but at the same time, I also want to have one big component called portal frame which contains all the other small compnents?
@@weixiang1048 thanks and yep that’s possible.
Switching the batteries!!! 🎉 I was so frustrated. Didn't think the batteries would be different left to right! Thank you! I was going to just switch to normal batteries here.
ruclips.net/video/izwP1374im8/видео.html perfect summary. Thanks!!
Thank you so much Sir for free trainings
Great. very useful.
This is both Amazing and Terrifying at the same time. I have literally just started classes to learn how to code this week....
Wow, this is very interesting!
Good job. Thank you
How do you put baseplate on this?
Is this on the warehouse of on kts website
@@frankberns3532 neither at the moment as this isn’t really a public tool right now. It’s something I made for the API competition and use internally for coding.
@@KeyackTechnologySolutions its a great tool to help you understand the api programs. Make a simple component and turn it in a smart plug-in
Just started C# and the Tekla API examples. This is a great idea to save much time.
Hi
Thanks for such informative video ❤
This is well explained for me. Thank you much.
Sangat bermanfaat ❤❤❤❤
I am in interested in Tekla PowerFab, but I am concerned about it handling Coldform (i.e. Zees, Cees, and Eave Struts) correctly.
@@jteasler reach out to Tekla to show them how to work with this but I know what you’re talking about since your inventory is really a roll coil not a 40, 50, or 60’ piece of hot rolled that you are making a cut list from. I’ve seen Tekla do some demos related to this but most metal building fabricators I’ve seen who roll their own cold formed have a special integration using something like Beck Automation Connex and linking it with their ERP like Epicor etc.
Can I get MBS component sir
Thanks for sharing your knowledge
This is what dreams are made of. How many years will it take me to learn how to do this?
Very nice Chris. Is this available to purchase or subscribe to?
Hi, currently these are custom developed tools for each client based on their specific standards vs an off the shelf per user tool for sale. Happy to discuss more at chris@keyacktech.com
“That feels just like old…” few more year and reaches the speed of 21.1; congratulation; lets calculate the maintenance fee for 7 years 3000$/year… no, better not
I feel ya, at the same time I’m happy to see Trimble react to user complaints and struggles.
Impressive. Many have. We too have our own

Where can we get this API?
Hi Keyack, Can you provide a video that how we can begin SDS2 .net API. I have followed the instruction video of SDS2, still i got an error below. Please help me. System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException This exception was originally thrown at this call stack: [External Code] Inner Exception 1: TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for '<Module>' threw an exception. Inner Exception 2: DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'sds2native': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
good explentation
The customer support element has definitely gone downhill for SDS/2 since covid. they before had it where you could get on a messenger type chat dialog with support. Theyve ended this and now only seem to operate via phone call and email. When I call, I'm very lucky if i reach anyone on the first try. If I email a question, I usually get my answer towards the end of the day. I'm very skeptical of the reason they gave for taking the messenger thing down, saying that people didnt use it as much. That was definitely not true in my case and now I receive feedback much slower or sporadically.
i spent 5 hours trying to figure this out tysm
Very helpful, thanks
hi, if you would give a name to Marks_Bart and Bolt mark on View Properties sub-settings you might not loose any settings while changing others (?)
Thank you
Felicitaciones por tu explicacion y por tu generocidad al compartirlo
Yeah it's pretty amazing. I saw a developer do a similar thing by having chatgpt create a website from scratch while he guided it through the process using only layman's language. It gave impressive results so I tried it with Tekla, and sure enough, it was able to spit out some great code. Now I use it all the time. It truly is amazing to have all that knowledge at your fingertips.
Yep awesome stuff!
That was very informative video ! Will real love you see more videos on Tekla Api training along with C# training, 😊
Great work by copilot
