I assume this has been mentioned before (might even be working on it) but being able to specify the steel design parameters in the Physical Modeler would be a game changer. A separate design module would be good too (sorta how RCDC works), but I d...

automated tool for hydrostatic loading should be included

Create the ability to use a .dwg or .dxf file as a background when using Staad Physical Modeler. Have clickable nodes in background. Have the ability to place that background at different elevations.

I know there is a way to use Copy/Paste Nodes, Members, Properties, Materials, etc.Not Talking about the hard way of doing things- which involves trial and error and a lot of clean up. Since the new recommended Workflow is promoting a Physical Mod...

It would be nice to tell the optimizer to optimize to angles where the angle legs are equal. By default I prefer to specify equal legs, as it eliminates confuse and chances of error when the legs are the same size. So even if the optimizer suggest...

Is there any possibility to update IS 802 latest code in stadd pro connect in near future? Till now IS 802 1995 is provided instead of IS 802 2016

As most of the functions exposed in OpenSTAAD uses the surfaceId to target a specific parametric surface, a function to retrieve the Id of the parametric surface by specifying it's name will be essential. I tried using the existing function GetPar...

Usually we start creating the parametric surface mesh by assigning a name. However, there will be situations where we need to clear all the existing mesh definitions and then start afresh. It will be much helpful if there is a function in OpenSTAA...

Can we have a single query where we can have both the Bending Moments, and Shear forces can be sketched in the query report? adding the Deflection Diagram would also be an added advantage.

Looking for a OpenSTAAD Function to extract Area of reinforcement from STAAD Output. I have explored the OpenSTAAD help and I couldn't able to find. If you have any solutions, please suggest.
