XS_​DO_​NOT_​OVERWRITE_​PLUGIN_​INP_​FILE

Category

This advanced option must be set in an initialization (.ini) file.

With standard settings Tekla Structures overwrites the step profile settings and replaces them with the default values every time when Tekla Structures is started. To prevent Tekla Structures from losing the step profile settings, set the advanced option XS_DO_NOT_OVERWRITE_PLUGIN_INP_FILE to TRUE in the teklastructures.ini file.

If you are using catalog step profiles and have set XS_DO_NOT_OVERWRITE_PLUGIN_INP_FILE to TRUE and you update Tekla Structures, do the following:

  1. Set XS_DO_NOT_OVERWRITE_PLUGIN_INP_FILE to FALSE in teklastructures.ini file.

  2. Update Tekla Structures.

  3. Start Tekla Structures.

  4. Set XS_DO_NOT_OVERWRITE_PLUGIN_INP_FILE to TRUE in teklastructures.ini file.

  5. Run Steps.exe.

  6. Restart Tekla Structures.
