| Structural Geometry |
Determines the criteria pertaining to physical geometry of a structural element.
- Section — Displays structural section keyed in or the one selected from the Structural Sections dialog by clicking Select .
- Rotation — Accepts the angle of rotation up to 360. The positive value rotates the element in clockwise direction and negative in counterclockwise about the member centroid.
- Mirror — Sets the flip effect of flanges on or off.
- Placement point — Defines the location of the baseline relative to the member section by clicking on the icon to select one from the pop-up menu options. There are nine physical placement points and one theoretical centroid available.

| Structural Data |
Picks the structural data associated with the structural element in the selection criteria
- Fillet — Turns fillet on or off. Applicable when the wide flange section properties include the radius.
- Mark — Defines the part prefix as an identification mark; e.g.
- B-1 — for Beams
- C-1 — for Columns
- P-1 — for Purlins, etc.
- Type — Specifies the type property of structural component; e.g.
- Beam — for Beams
- Column — for Columns
- Handrail — for Handrails, etc.
- Material — Defines the standard material of the structural component; e.g. Steel, Timber, Concrete, etc.
- Grade — Defines the grade as material specifications standards; e.g. A36, A50 — for Steel, 4000psi, 5000psi — for Concrete, etc.
- Status — Defines the part position; usually New, or Old.
- Class — Defines the part order; e.g. Primary, Secondary, Framing, etc.
- User1 .. User4 — Sets the user defined variables 1 to 4.
- End1/End2 Action — Defines the end 1 / end 2 action for the structural component, e.g. 12.0 K / 14.0 K
- End1/End2 Detail — Defines the end 1 / end 2 detail for the structural component, e.g. Type 1/ Type II.

| Cope / Trim Info |
Determines the selection of cope and trimming property settings in the selection criteria.
- Cope/Trim — Sets the filter to select either one of the options.
- Member has at least one feature
- Member has no feature
- Web Clearance — Defines the value of the clearance space between structural member webs in coping.
- Flange Clearance — Defines the value of the clearance space between structural member flanges in coping.
- Inside Corner Treatment — Sets the inside corner treatment, by clicking on the icon to select one from the pop-up menu options: squared off, rounded radius, or squared off corner with notch.
- Inside Corner Radius — Defines the value of the radius of the inside corner treatment.
