Forte Software Ideas

Support labels


Forte generates support ids: "support 1", "support 2" etc

When I'm dealing with a column grid labeled on my drawings horizontally A, B, C, D... and vertically 1, 2,3,4... I want to label the supports meaningfully like B4, C2 etc. Please add this feature. It would avoid a lot of confusion in mentally mapping reality to your results.

Let me set my labels on the spans and support tab: first row in matrix.

The the labels should appear in the linking windows and the report..

    This would be helpful. Right now I am stuck with a ridiculously long member name to try to describe where in the building it is.
