polar coordinate option disabled!

[mgaafar]

Hi, for some reason the polar coordinate option for the panels are disabled. i am using RSA 2018 and want to know why it is disabled or it is my version of RSA.

Thanks

I think it is greyed since always. But why would you like to use it?
Do you have more than 1 circular slab?

Hi @mgaafar

If you need that for better display of results then for maps and panel results table it is available. The same for setting the reinforcement directions.

I have only one circular slab but cut into many sectors because I have the reinforcement in the radial/tangential directions so I want the local axis of each sector to be in the radial/tangential direction.

Hi @Artur.Kosakowski, I have the reinforcement in the radial/tangential directions for this circular slab, so I want the local axis of each sector to be in the radial/tangential direction so that when reviewing the Mxx & Myy it will be in the directions of the main reinforcement(local axis) of the panel.

isn't that the intend of having polar local axis option? 

as per your comment, is there a way to display the moments in the polar sense even though the local axis of the panel in the global Cartesian directions?

Thanks

As in the picture.
