Capture Selected Element as Custom Profile

To create a new custom profile based on selected elements (walls, columns, or beams) in the active model window:

Select the elements, then do one of the following:

•Click Capture button in Profile Manager

•Options > Complex Profiles > Capture Profile of Selection

The new profile is called “Custom”.

Save Custom Profile

After editing a captured custom profile in Profile Editor, make sure you click Save Profile to save your edits and name the new Profile, before closing the window.

Alternatively, click Apply to apply a one-off custom to a selected wall, beam or column.

Note: Custom profiles are not directly assigned to elements from the Profile Manager, but locally stored in the element.
