Beam Cross Section Stress Control not working with "Hole to hole fasteners"

Hello,

I have a problem with beam cross section stress control when selecting beam elements of created hole to hole fasteners. This had worked before, but for some reasons it is not working now. Is there any settings that must be ON in order to obtain stresses of beam elements. I probably made some incorrect selection in PostProcessing Data but I don't know what. In my model, I have beam elements, solid and shell elements so probably a correct selection in PostProcessing Data must be done but I don't know what. Can anyone help me with this?
Thanx in advance :)

Ok, so everybody else having this problem: It is a bug in the 11.0.1 version of FEMAP. Checking the beam cross section stress control in v.11.0 and v.11.1 works without this problem.
 
I just tried this in v11.0.1 and it works for me. The single requirement for View, Advanced Post, Beam Cross Section is that one has recovered the elemental forces from the finite element solve. If you'd like to send me your model where this is not working, I'd be glad to figure it out - sherman dot mark at siemens dot com
