Problem

For modeling structural elements it is required to know the centraline of each element. The central line takes part in the major load transformation of any structural system. So, in OBD the ability to view the central line is also available.

Installation

1. For this please right-click on the structural member.
2. Then a drop-down menu will pop up.
3. At the bottom, the second last option will be ‘Structural Properties’. Choose that option.


4. Then choose ‘Layout’ from the ‘Shape Properties’.From there toggle on the Center Line option.
