Update Design Results dialog

Used to update changes made to Structural elements that have been imported after an external application completes a structural analysis. When you update imported data from an external analysis program, you may be round-tripping data that you sent for analysis.

When you import a file with changes made by an analysis program, you can select the members to update your model or you can import all members in the imported file.

Setting	Description
Members	Lists all the structural members in the analyzed model with details about data changes. All columns can be sorted and resized. Family — Lists the family of parts associated with the member on that row. Part — Lists the part associated with the member on that row. Current Section — Lists the section name associated with the member on that row before the analysis. New Section — Lists the new section name associated with the member on that row after the analysis is complete. Changes — Lists a short description of the changes made during the analysis for the member on that row. Types of changes that are tracked are: Rotation Changed End Action Changed Section Changed No Change New Member Deleted End Points Changed File — Lists the file name associated with the member on that row during the analysis. ID — Lists the unique ID number associated with the member on that row.
Cantilevers	Lists all the structural cantilevers in the analyzed model with details about data changes. All columns can be sorted and resized. The available columns are the same as for member data. Family Part Changes File ID
Solids	Lists all the structural solids (plates, slabs, foundations) in the analyzed model with details about data changes. All columns can be sorted and resized. The available columns are the same as for member data except there is no sections data to manipulate. Family Part Changes File ID
Walls	Lists all the structural walls (linear forms converted into structural elements) in the analyzed model with details about data changes. All columns can be sorted and resized. The available columns are the same as for member data except there is no sections data to manipulate. Family Part Changes File ID
Load Cases	Lists all the structural load cases in the analyzed model with details about data changes. All columns can be sorted and resized. Changes — Lists a short description of the changes made during the analysis for the load case on that row. Name — Lists the name of the load case on that row. Type — Provides a description for the load case on that row.
Load Combinations	Lists all the structural load combinations in the analyzed model with details about data changes. All columns can be sorted and resized. Changes — Lists a short description of the changes made during the analysis for the load case on that row. Name — Lists the name of the load combination on that row. Description — Displays the description of the load combination. Expression — Displays the expression used in calculating the load combination.
Floors	Lists all the floor definitions in the analyzed model with details about data changes. All columns can be sorted and resized. Name Description Changes
Update	Updates the selected analyzed elements or members in the Structural model, and dismisses the Update Design Results dialog.
