Hi guys

Is it possible to change the phase angle of a load that is defined as a time history sine function. I can't find it anywhere, the "angle" in "load case data - linear modal history" doesn't quite do the trick.

I want to use the time history function for multiple loads and it would help a lot if I could specify the phase angles without having to define a new function for each load..
