XS_CHAMFER_ACCURACY_FACTOR

Category
Speed and accuracy
Use this advanced option to define the number of points used for chamfers. Use lower values to
increase the number of points used to construct the chamfer, thus making the curved chamfer
smoother. Use larger values to decrease the number of points used to construct the chamfer, thus
making the curved chamfer less smoother.
The default value is 4.0.
Restart Tekla Structures after changing the value to activate the new setting.
Each object can only support up to 99 points, so if your contour plates are too complex or too
round, the maximum number of points may be exceeded and the part geometry may break.

NOTE:
Even though the XS_CHAMFER_ACCURACY_FACTOR setting changes the appearance of the
curved chamfers in the model, it does not affect the accuracy of the DSTV file.

In the example below, the value is 16.

In the example below, the value is 1.
