Bound values of controls to attributes

Updated: 13 May 2019

Only the values of controls which are bound to some attribute will be saved, meaning they have “AttributeName” and “AttributeTypeName”.

  1. On your form, right-click on a textbox and select Properties.

  2. Under Tekla Structures, find AttributeName and AttributeTypeName.

  3. Type the name and the type of your attributes to the correct boxes.

  4. Repeat steps 2-4 for every other textbox on your form.
