Is there a way to insert user defined plate thicknesses in the Plate Element tool? I need stair treads that are 10 gauge. The only choices I have are 1/8" and 3/16"...
Any ideas or am I hosed?

By UNITS change the type of system on Engineering with precision 0'-0.0000".
Use attached database in C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Structural\Common Data\2013\Data\Prof and plate thickness 0.1345"

Jakub-
Thank you for answering all of my questions lately. Its a huge help. How do I edit the XML file if I want to add another thickness to it?
Thanks!

It is possible to do in notepad.
Thank you... I see the format now. Is it possible to have the new gauge thicknesses in Fractional format as well?
Again Thank you Jakub for all your help!

You mean 10 gauge = 0.1345" = 0 269/2000?
I do not think so.
We can use precision units like 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 etc to 1/256
Thank you Jakub. I realized after my post that it was probably a silly question.
