This tutorial shows you how to create and save a stress Iso annotation template. For this tutorial, open RELIEF.C2 from the CAESAR II Examples folder.
To create a template:
-
Select Edit Stress Annotations on the Isometric Tools toolbar to open the Stress Isometric Annotations pane.
You can only include the input features in a template. Select all the nodes listed
for that feature to include an input feature in a template.
-
Click the Feature list. Select a feature, and then select all the nodes listed for the feature. For example, select all the nodes listed for the Restraint/Hanger Types feature.
-
Similarly, select all the nodes or elements of other input features that you want to include.
-
Select Settings tab to specify a text box shape for the input feature you selected in the earlier part of this tutorial. Let us select Filleted Rectangle for the Restraint/hanger types feature.

Select StressIso > Save Template to save your selections as a template. A template file with the .ist extension is saved in the model folder.
