REV 7.06

Q: The drop down menus are not dropping. What happened?
REV 7.06

Q: Why do I get the following when using the Automated Transportation Macros?

REV 5.05

Q: I am doing a transportation analysis using the Automated Installation Macros and already have tiedowns in my structural model. What is the easiest way to fix this situation?
REV 5.08

Q: What is the definition of all of the load cases defined for an automated transportation analysis?
REV 5.09

Q: I did some tests for using the macro KG_ALLOW, and I found that the reported maximum allowable KG (for the same draft) had different values when the user applied different weights. For intact condition, is it true that there should be only one maximum allowable KG value for one single draft?
REV 6.01

Q: I am using the Automated Installation Macros to perform a transportation with time synthesis. I noticed that there are tension reactions even though the solution was supposed to be nonlinear.
REV 6.01

Q: How can I change the water depth for tow motions when I use the transportation macros?
REV 6.01

Q: Why are my tiedowns not shown in the pictures?
REV 7.00

Q: When doing a transportation analysis using the installation macros, I get two reports one which says results for maximum axial load greater than 0 another for maximum moment greater than zero. Why?
