I have a beam modeled as multiple beams to account for changes in section properties. I created a physical member from this group of beams. What I am trying to do is print the force envelope of that physical beam at nsections. Is this possible?

Related question, but lets say that I'm only concentrating on one beam here and I want the force envelope to show sections of specific locations of my choosing (not just 20 equally spaced sections). I know that I can do that for a single load by using something like "SECTION 0 0.106 0.5 0.894 1 MEMB 2", but I can't seem to figure out how to print results of multiple loads using the "print force envelope" command and specific sections.

If either of these are possible, it would save me a lot of time!

Thanks,

Ryan
