Visual Studio Project Templates

Visual Studio (2017/2019) extension that uses templates to quickly create new projects for Tekla Structures (2017i/2019i) macros

Features

• Create a new project from one of the following templates:
  • Script macro (what I refer to a macro without a form dialog)
  • WinForm macro
• Project can then be written & debugged in Visual Studio
• .cs file can then be copied to the model/drawing macro folder to be used from Macros list

Install

In Visual Studio, search "teklanology.project-templates-01" Alternatively download vsix file from Visual Studio Marketplace or GitHub

Release Notes

See CHANGELOG for release notes.

Usage

Upon launching Visual Studio, select the required template, input the details and create the project. The template will then name the project and .cs file accordingly, and import the NuGet package for the Tekla Structures version you have selected.

Road map

• Support for using code from recorded macros
• Additional templates for model/drawing plugins
• Support for additional versions of Tekla Structures
• Support for additional versions of Visual Studio
