Frame Generator / additional profile sizes

Anonymous — Thu, 15 Mar 2018 18:08:54 GMT

Hello All,

A simple Frame Generator question here. Love the Frame Generator but in this case I simply need a 3/4" x 3/4" x 1/8" angle and my library has only 1" x 1" x 1/8" as the smallest.

I am not a big time model publisher and author so I hope this is easy, but I just simply need a smaller angle profile for my Frame Generator. Is there a simple way I can modify a larger size and save and publish it or perhaps it's downloadable from somewhere? Can anyone help?

Much Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Rick

You have to create your own read write content center library.. Copy the out-of-box structural section to your new library.. Then you can go in (content center editor) and edit the information residing in your customer read/write library and then add the sizes that you need.
