Had anybody produced an automatic command script to release end moments of all beams (beam188) or found a way of changing the beam elements from beam188 to link8 elements. I have a complex 3D truss type structure.

I thought there would have been an option in workbench to change the element type from beams to spars for simple analysis.

Thanks

P.S. Im working in workbench 11.0
