You would have to assign the wind loading to the member groups using the input editor. More details are available at

Do you want to apply wind load for those bracings? Usually, bracings are excluded from the wind loading. In such case, you would need to create a group of members of each face where wind load needs to be applied excluding the bracing members and applied wind load for those groups.
