I have developed an ETABS model, using API with python. After designing the model, there is an error that relates to beams' unbraced length. So I need to modify "Unbraced Length Ratio (Minor)".
The command that I've used, is this(unique name for beams in my model starts from 126 to 325 ):
Python:
for i in range(126,326):
    Overwrite=SapModel.DesignSteel.AISC360_10.SetOverwrite(str(i),19,0.005)
The code runs without any error but the modification doesn't apply.
Do you know the answer?
