And Speckle Manager isn’t loading TS Connector page :c

Hi @Maks_T!

It seems we have a problem with our automated release of the Tekla connector, that is causing some unexpected errors on manager and the release page.

While we fix this, you can go ahead and download our latest Tekla release from here:

https://releases.speckle.dev/installers/teklastructures/teklastructures-2.7.1.exe

Thanks for bringing this up! We’ll get it fix ASAP

This issue has been fixed! :smiley: You should be able to see the current (and previous) versions of the Tekla Connector now, though you may need to:

  • Hard reload your browser if you’re looking at our releases page
  • Restart your manager if it still doesn’t show the Tekla page properly

Hi All, @Reynold_Chan !

Do we have possibility to select exported parameters from Tekla model, like we do while exporting IFC files? If we think of speckle as a data hub - this shall be keystone of exporting options for Tekla.

Hi Pavel,

Right now the connector does include all User Properties by default, so your custom defined fields. But not the Report Properties i.e. the native Tekla ones like you show. But I agree this would be a great feature to include where you can choose which properties you want!

As an addition to Pavel’s suggestion, I see right now that in the Revit connector Instance Parameters are only created on receive if the object is defined as a Revit object with Revit parameters. But from other software (Tekla in this case) it would be great to be able to get the Tekla properties as Instance parameters on the object like how it is done when importing an IFC into Revit.

I would also like that very much, as it would also fit into a current demand of mine :slight_smile:

Hello everyone, I hope this message finds you well. I have recently installed the Speckle Tekla Connector, however, I am having trouble locating it on Tekla Structures. I have attempted to find it on both versions 2020 and 2021, but unfortunately, have not been successful. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have checked the directory and confirmed that the installation is present here. However, I am uncertain about the cause of the problem.

Hello again @Mohamed_Manseur,

I am struggling to figure out what may have gone wrong here. The only thing that I can think of is that Tekla registers all the loaded plugins when the program first opens. Therefore if Tekla was already open when you installed the Speckle plugin, you would need to close Tekla and reopen it for Tekla to register it. Could you close Tekla and reopen it and see if that solves the issue?

Hey @colin.macdonald ,

Thank you for sharing the Speckle Model URL. I was able to reproduce the issue you mentioned and it seems like this model is extremely large (couple KMs). My suspicion is that there may be an issue with the units. Would it be possible for you to share the Tekla file as well? If you are not comfortable sharing it here, you can send it to me through a direct message.

Hmm, that’s weird the model isn’t that large. here is the ifc file from tekla.
