Cancel Last Point

The ability to cancel last point when drawing an area load, deck assignment or mat foundation like you can in RAM Concept. It's especially frustrating when drawing a mat foundation and you accidentally click the wrong point and have to start over ...

time history analysis and steady state analysis

please add these two capabilities as structures are becoming more complex and dyamic analysis in time history or steady state are useful to study parameter like impact or vibration. I think STAAD has these features but I want this in RAM element too.
