Within the Annotation Menu, could you include Plates Stresses & Nodal Forces ? This will be very useful to display specific plate /nodal results during compilation of Structural reports. Given that the contours only show a range of values. Thi...
This might be difficult to implement, but it might be nice if you could label the node numbers in the physical modeler different than used in the analytical modeler so that you could keep those nodes the same. Therefore, they would show up the sam...
In Staad Pro 23.00.02.361, the size of the local coordinate system arrow cannot be enlarged or reduced simultaneously with the model. At present, the size of the local coordinate system arrow is too large. When there are many rod elements in the model, the local coordinate system almost covers the entire model, affecting other operations. Please provide improvement.
Make Material Definition properties apply for steel design
Currently, according to Bentley Support, the Material Definition properties are only used in the Connection Design module and are not used for steel design & code checking. The SGR, FYLD, FU parameters must be used instead to define the materi...

Future consideration
Implement unity check of capacity for aluminum members according EN 1999-1-1
It should work similarly to code checking steel members according to EN 1993-1-1. It would benefit everyone designing aluminum structures due to highly corrosive environments and/or weight restrictions.
Extrude the current element to the next 'dimensional' element.
at present in the 'Translational repeat' command we have the option to 'link elements' so as to create new 'beam' elements... - could we expand this feature so that: 1) translational repeating a line (parallel to its local X axis) can have the pos...
Reports: Add Block for Descriptive Title, as before Ver. 23.0
Versions previous to 23.0 allowed a descriptive title in the header block. Now the reader has no clue what the report is about, except maybe by the file name. See attached file which shows descriptive title, right up front where you expect it.
Distinct OpenSTAAD objects for each instance of Staad
At present only one OpenSTAAD object can be retrieved which acts globally for the Staad application which limits the efficient use of Staad. With the ever increasing system resources, having distinct OpenSTAAD objects for each instance of Staad wi...
The ability to add reference labels to geometry (or note), so when the whole model is displayed you can have visual reference of what each item represents, ie label gridlines, elevations
