Overview

Converts RBE2s into BEAMs Givens from user: RBE2 selection, PBEAM. All selected RBE2s will be moved into "RBE2s" component and new BEAM elements will be stored under "BEAMs" component. The element x-axis points from GA to GB. The element y-axis lies on the plane created by the element x-axis and the smallest component of the element x-axis in the basic coordinate system, and is orthogonal to the element x-axis. The element z-axis is the cross-product of the element x-axis and the element y-axis. Should work all user profiles.

    Is it converting RBE2 which is used to connect 2 holes, into beam?
