Update log
Trimble has released Tekla Tedds 2021 SP2 (23.2.0000) and Engineering Libraries (August 2021). This release includes many enhancements and problem resolutions.
Tekla Tedds 2021 – Service Pack 2
1. Emphasize
Write a custom calculation
New optimizations when Word Calc items are stored in the Calc library can reduce the storage size of individual calc items by up to 75%. Smaller items will be calculated faster due to less data to process.
Tedds content authored in Microsoft Word is saved to the Calc library in Rich Text Format (RTF). This plain text format uses special tags to define formatting and other document information. Microsoft Word is designed to maintain high fidelity of data retention when importing and exporting data in RTF format, and therefore includes many tags in RTF that would normally be redundant in the context of Tedds.
Now, when RTF data is saved to the Calc library, it is preprocessed to remove unnecessary information in the RTF that does not affect how the content is calculated or merged back into the Tedds document.
2. Word teddy bear
User interfaces embedded in documents now support the _CalcUI variable. This variable can be used to conditionally show or hide the user interface allowing calculation automation, for example using Tedds batch design.
User interfaces created with the Interface Designer Pro application can use a new optional debug command button on the toolbar that can be used to execute custom expressions to perform actions that help resolve errors.
Enhanced Save Marked Calculate Items command. The command has been optimized to ensure that calculated items are only saved if the item content for properties has been modified, and the document insertion point is now restored to its original position after the command completes.
3. Progress log
New option for indenting items listed in the progress log. The displayed indent increases as each Calc item is calculated and decreases as the item completes its calculation so that you can visually determine which items in the log relate to which parent calculated item.
For example, debug events when using WatchVar and WatchFunction are now logged with their own debug entries.
Updated the styles and default color scheme used by the progress log to improve visual fidelity and overall consistency with the rest of the product.
4. Emphasize
Eight new functions that you can use when writing custom calculations.
1. Cube Root
Calculates the cube root of a value, including support for negative values.
cube root( 8 ) = 2
cube root( -8 ) = -2
2. String list functions
String list functions allow a list of values to be managed as a single string value, where each item in the string is separated by a list delimiter (usually a comma). For example, you can use such a list to record where on the beam a result of interest occurs.
New functionality included in this service pack makes it easier to work with such data.
Example
Two separate operations result in two lists of positions of interest on the beam that are currently unsorted, create a new list containing all positions (in mm) in both lists, in order from smallest to largest, without any repetition.
a1 = 0.0m; a2 = 0.575m; a3 = 0.63m; a4 = 1.2m
list1 = StringList( “F0”, “mm”, a1, a2, a3, a4 ) = “0,575,630,1200”
b1 = 0.0m; b2 = 0.325m; b3 = 0.63m; b4 = 0.2m
list2 = StringList( “F0”, “mm”, b1, b2, b3, b4 ) = “0,325,630,200”
position = StrListUnion( StrListSort(list1), StrListSort(list2 ) ) = “0,200,325,575,630,1200”
3. StrListJoin
StrListJoin can be used to join two lists of strings.
list1 = StrList( 1, 2, 3 )
list2 = StrList( 4, 5, 6 )
StrListJoin( list1, list2 ) = “1,2,3,4,5,6”
StrListJoin( list2, list1 ) = “4, 5,6,1,2,3”
4. Uniquelist of strings
Removes all consecutive duplicate elements from a sorted list of strings.
list = StrList( 1, 2, 3, 3, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 11 )
StrListUnique( list ) = “1,2,3,7,8,9,10,11”
5. Linked List Merge
Merges two sorted lists of strings into a single list of strings.
list1 = StrList( 1, 3, 7 )
list2 = StrList( 2, 6, 8 )
StrListMerge( list1, list2 ) = “1,2,3,6,7,8”
6. Linked-list union
Creates a sorted list of strings consisting of elements present in one or both sorted lists of strings.
list1 = StrList( 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 )
list2 = StrList( 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 )
StrListUnion( list1, list2 ) = “1,2,3,4,5, 6,7,8,9”
7. StrListIntersection
creates from two sorted lists of strings a sorted list of strings consisting of the elements present in both lists.
list1 = StrList ( 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 )
list2 = StrList( 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 )
StrListIntersection( list1, list2 ) = “2,5,9”
8. StrListDifference
creates, from two sorted lists of strings, a sorted list of strings consisting of elements present in the first list but not in the second.
list1 = StrList ( 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 )
list2 = StrList( 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 )
StrListDifference( list1, list2 ) = “1,3,7”
StrListDifference( list2, list1) = “4,6,8”
9. StrListSymmetricDifference
creates a sorted string list containing elements that exist in either, but not both, of the two sorted string lists.
list1 = StrList ( 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 )
list2 = StrList( 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 )
StrListSymmetricDifference( list1, list2 ) = “1,3,4,6,7, 8”
5. Other updates
1. Security

[TEDDS-5620] Enhanced VerifyEqual so that when the results differ, a warning message indicates the percentage difference between the two values.
[TEDDS-5546] Fixed an issue where the Data List Designer app did not initialize the “Hidden Grid” and “Fixed Splitter” options properly, causing them to be randomly applied when building a Data List.
