How to use integrated calculator in ProSteel.

Solution

In almost every dialog box with  numerical entries, you can use the integrated calculator for entering in the correct values.

In the dialog box, you just need to right click on the entry space and select the 'Insert calculated value...' option.



This will then open up the integrated calculator where you can perform your mathematical calculations to derive a correct input value.
After that, you just need to 'Copy' and the value will appear in the dialog box.



In this manner, you can put in the exact and accurate values for layout after careful calculations through ProStructures application itself.
