Hello, I'm working on the fatigue analysis using optistruct and I'm finding a difficulty with the TABFAT card, when I create the table and following the pdf tutorial they instruct on giving TABLE_NUM=2, but the thing is I can't find this TABLE_NUM in the card when I create it and therefore I cant enter the values of Data,y . Btw I'm using the hypermesh 2020 version and also the 2022.

The first picture is my card, and as you can see there is no TABLE_NUM option, while the second picture is the one from pdf tutorial.

    in the newer version, you can create the TABFAT curve and then 'edit' it to add as many rows as you need, as a table inside the 'Curve Editor'.

    But the thing is it's one column tabular data as the pdf states which means there are no X only the Y entries like in the picture I provided earlier.
