I created a triangulated plate, but I would like for the triangulated lines to not appear on my drawing. Does anyone know if I can change the display of the triangulated plate on the drawing?

There doesn’t seem to be an out of the box switch to hide these lines. There are a few workarounds suggested in this old forum post:

https://forum.tekla.com/topic/15845-want-only-outline-of-plate-when-using-triangles-generation/

The suggestions include using the Drawing 2D library to flatten the output and remove the lines, or draw a polyline around the parts and then hide the parts.

Your Tekla helpdesk might have other more recent alternatives.

Cheers,
