XS_​DEFAULT_​FONT

Category : Model view

Use to specify the default font in the model and drawings, for example, when creating grids, dimensions, and mark texts. Enter the name of any Windows font, for example, Arial Narrow. The default value is Segoe UI semibold.

If any of the following advanced options are not set, or if font conversion is needed in drawings, Tekla Structures uses XS_​DEFAULT_​FONT :

  • XS_CUT_SYMBOL_FONT

  • XS_DIMENSION_FONT

  • XS_GRID_TEXT_FONT

  • XS_MARK_FONT

  • XS_VIEW_TITLE_FONT

  • XS_WELD_FONT

For example, if XS_MARK_FONT has no value set and you open an old model with a newer version of Tekla Structures , XS_DEFAULT_FONT is used when converting marks to the new model database.

This advanced option is user specific and the setting is saved in options.bin under user folder. Restart Tekla Structures to activate the new value.
