How to create a Custom L-angle Section ?

[Joseph_Daou]

Hi all,

How can I create a custom L-angle section in Robot for example L-40x40x2 that is not in the database of any country.

Is there a way to create it from other parametric section type?

Thank you in advance.

Hi @Joseph_Daou!

You can creat this section in "tools/section definition" using this steps:

Or change the existing database that has a similar L shape, like 40x40x3, using this steps:
