Sorting
Next up we will see how we can sort information in our model. Let’s look at the
Joint Coordinates spreadsheet for the first time and let’s use a special window
arrangement to do this.
Click the Tiling button on the RISA Toolbar and the following list of
window tiling options is presented.
Later on we will experiment with these options. For now, select the second option
which is “Joints Input” and click OK.
Your screen should look like this:
This tiling option has opened the Joint Coordinates spreadsheet in the upper left
corner and placed the Joint Boundary Conditions spreadsheet below it. The
joints are listed in the order in which they were created as we defined our model.
It would be more useful to list them based on their coordinate locations.
