Structure > Elements > Shape

Definition of any initial deformation shape of elements, defined by displacements and rotations of the element ends with respect to the design geometry. 

Note: This function is currently not supported. Any fabrication shape deviating from theoretical design shape must be defined in a load set or load case respectively!
