OS. Macro Tutorial
This tutorial will take you step-by-step through the process of creating a practical macro used to generate a parametric 2D frame with supports.
The assumptions behind this parametric frame are:
- 2D frame lies in the XY plane at Z = 0 (with first support node at the origin)
- All bays are of equal width and height
- The user specifies the units of length before running the macro
- All supports have the same type and all nodes at Y = 0 are supports
Most of these assumptions could be either validated for altered with some changes or additions to the macro presented in this tutorial.
