Keyboard Shortcuts

This month we take a fresh look in 2021 at the ability to create custom keyboard shortcuts to speed up your workflows in Tekla Structures. We also share a few of our favorite commands to use with a custom hotkey.

Very helpful tips. Thanks! For some reason, I never think about keyboard shortcuts even though I use them a lot in AutoCad.

Hello. Do you have something similar for PowerFab?

[@jimjana7241]

Hello Dave and thank you for your tips and tricks videos. They are really helpful. Is there any way to contact you about some questions that I have? Because I have posted on tekla forums but no one answers my questions and I really need an answer.
Thank you in advance.

Can we select similer objekts or parts by one comend ? Like we have a beam in big project and want to select all of it in diferent positon in tekla ?

Dave you should try my custom ribbon and key binds on my Logitech G502.

I'm sure it's tricked out, but to be honest I never got into the fancy mouse thing. 20+ years of CAD and Modeling and I still prefer a simple 2-button mouse. I'm weird I guess.

@@TrimbleTeklaDave I'm a grey haired detailer. But the new kids on the block were just full of new ways. I had to conform.
Only thing I would say is I now rely on the mouse and ribbons. Without my productivity drops clean off.
Currently working on King Cross London build S5. If you have time to check it out

Add a hot key for MODIFY! that's the worst thing about this program, that I have to mouse click MODIFY every time I want to change something!
