Request for Function Creation in OpenSTAAD to Modify Response Spectrum Direction in X, Y, and Z

Request for Function Creation in OpenSTAAD to Modify Response Spectrum Direction in X, Y, and Z

We are working with OpenSTAAD and need to programmatically modify the response spectrum direction values in X, Y, and Z. In the attached image, the value for the X direction is shown (currently 1.42), but we also need to modify the values for Y and Z from a script.

Therefore, we are requesting the creation of a function in OpenSTAAD that allows us to change these values in an automated way.

Function Requirements

  • Access the response spectrum settings in STAAD.Pro.

  • Modify the direction values for the X, Y, and Z axes.

  • Allow users to input desired values for each direction.

Required Format

We would appreciate it if the function could be implemented in VBA or Python, along with a practical usage example.

We sincerely appreciate your support with this request.

Thank you in advance!
