    STAAD.Pro AISC/CSA Code Checks - Eccentric Axial Specification

    There is currently no way, other than directly adding rigid body members with the necessary releases, to simulate an an axial angle or tee member (brace) under eccentric axial load. This causes a high amount of manual calculations to determine the...

    Provide option to Rename the Group

    Sometimes, during the initial stages, we may assign a group name—say, XYZ—but later someone might want to change that group name. There should be an option to rename the group without opening the STAAD editor file.

    Add ability to show "Colour by Utilization Ratio" for 3D view in post processing workflow

    It would be good to have a 3D view in post processing with colours of the beam as defined with a UR value. It is possible to have this with beam view now, but would be good if we have it for 3D view like SACS have. (as shown below for example).
