It would be nice to enhance the Custom connection area of Advance Steel to be able to position objects on the beam web, flange, along beam web flange etc
We regulary use beam elements, folded plates special parts etc, these currenty cannot be controlled inteliganelty through the custom connection.
The workflow as I see it would be as follow
1. Model the element manually, such as a beam, folded plate, special part, grating etc and place it as required
2. Choose a new command from the tool palette such as "Object on Beam Flange"
3. Select the object
4. Select a point on the object which is to be attached to the Beam flange
