How to use Quick Launch to find commands, dialog boxes, and toolbars

Use the Quick Launch box in the upper-right corner of the screen to find commands, dialog boxes, toolbars, and other functions. The shortcut key for Quick Launch is Ctrl+Q.

  1. In the Quick Launch box, enter a search term. For example, type bolt if you are looking for bolt commands.
  2. Wait for a list of search results to appear. For example:

    Tekla Structures highlights the commands on the ribbon or on the File menu, to help you locate them. For example:

  3. To run a command, click its name on the search results list.

    Or press Enter to instantly run the first command on the list.

    For some basic settings and toolbars a check box appears in front them in the search results list. Click the command to activate the setting, or to have the toolbar visible.

    Tip:

    If the list of search results is no longer visible, press Ctrl+Space to reactivate it.
