Wall Design - too many redundant design warnings

I don't need multiple design warnings for the same condition. For example, I have an out-of-plane shear strength warning for one of my segments. I have 26 warnings (associated with 26 combinations) for the same condition. The "worst" one listed in...

sideplate slows down transitions

Models with large quantities of sideplate connections exhibit huge delays when changing between operations (show member info, view update, assignments, etc.). This extends to the concrete module which has nothing to do with steel. This issue has p...
