Go to the “View Properties” window by executing a double-click

The “Angle” field switches to the view plane and vice-versa. It correlates to the Ctrl+P hotkey combination functioning.

The “View depth Up/Down” field
It indicates how far from the view plane the objects of the model are displayed. This means that each view created in the Tekla Structures is not infinite. Each view has its borders, and all the objects beyond the borders are not displayed. These borders are represented as a dashed line of a rectangle.
It is possible to create a view at an elevation point and to narrow the
In the below view, you can see only the beams located at the -1000mm level, and every object which is located up to the 1000mm elevation. The following beamline of the +2000 mm elevation is not visible. The view depth affects columns differently, thus if at least a part of the column appertains to the view depth range, then the column will be entirely displayed. To see the second beamline, change the view depth value to 2000mm.
To entirely render the model specify the view depth value at 10000, this
The top view is the one created at the elevation point of +0.000 mm. When switching to the view plane, the view depth value indicates how many millimeters are in the direction from the screen towards the user.
Open any of the side views. The view depth in the side views works in
To define in the right way where is the model top and where is the bottom,
Now we see the model at 1000 mm into the screen depth and at 1000mm towards
Thus in this view you can also see a limited part of the model.
