This article explains how you can ask the user to select objects from the model using the Tekla Open API. It also provides examples as to how to filter the objects selected by the user. Step 1: Add reference to the Tekla.Structures.Model and Tekla.Structures.Drawing library
Understanding the start and end points of a part object is essential when working with parts. Start and end points are displayed using a square at both ends of the part: By modifying the start and end point offsets you will be able to change their relative position with
