Add objects to a joint without having to delete the Advance Joint properties box.

Add objects to a joint without having to delete the Advance Joint properties box.

It would be nice to add objects to an Advance joint without deleting the inteligience of the Advance joint properties box. Example. I have had times when I need to add an additional joist to a Shear plate connection (2 joists connected to the same shear plate). I have achieved this by deleting the properties box, later to find the joists require moving upwards by set distance. Instead of an easy pick & move with the joints following, every single element of the now exploded joints needs to be carefully selected (could be dozens or hundreds) & moved. Things get missed & it becomes a mess.

that's why User connection are exisiting. You could combine "normal" joints or just elements to a user connection. 
Save it in the project or for having it in all models it could be save in a connection folder which could be defined in the management tools.
So your idea is already possible

I understand that it is possible to "create" custom or user connections. It is necessary with unique or complex situations. I do however find that it is labour intensive, and in some situations problematic. I have found that sometimes several versions of the same custom joint need to be created to account for different orientation of members. It just seems more user friendly if the "Add Objects" or "Delete Objects"  (ASTORCREATECONNECTION) could be applied to the bolts of the 'out of the box' connection vault connections without deleting the properties box. Perhaps if there was a checkbox within the "Bolts & Holes" settings that enabled ADD/DELETE OBJECTS FROM CONNECTION. Allowing the bolts to increase accordingly, holes added to the new member (& the joint remain intelligient) so that it updates easily if members need to be moved using their system line grips at a later time.
