Set of Grasshopper components for interacting with Tekla drawing area.
Based on great job done by Sebastian Lindholm from Trimble available in Tekla Warehouse.
Originally, drawing part was not under the scope of link. I hope that as a Tekla community we can fill this gap - LetsConstructIT!
You have to point .gha file with drawing components to Rhino. It can be done in exactly same manner as the Model link. List of available releases of Drawing link can be found at Releases section.
Video instruction can be found on: YouTube
