Include a Quick button to "Un-assign" or "remove assigned" Loads from Member/ Elements

Hello Development Team,

Could you consider adding a quick "button" to execute "un-assign" or " remove load " command from both plate elements & line members ? (Please refer to the attached picture).

This tool would work as a quick "reverse operator" for removing loads from members or elements if assigned by mistake. These mistakes tends to happen for large or complex staad models containing plate elements.

Hence, in order to remove "mis-assigned" loads, the specific elements (or member) would first be "selected" by the user; and when this new button is clicked, the loads can be removed quickly for that selected member/ element.

On complex jobs, this "quick" and "more convenient" button would speed up modelling & editing efforts without necessarily having to arduously comb through the "assign to edit list" and search for the element(s) or member(s) numbers and thereafter manually deleting those member/element numbers from the very long list.


Once the button is added, I hope this would help everyone and also improve the overall user experience .

    Thank you for posting this idea. However, the capability is already provided. Check the option, 'toggle load'. If you then assign the load onto an object that does not have the load it is added, if it has the load, then it is removed.
