How to define the point load conveniently?

The SLN 21 belongs to GRP 101, while the remaining SLNs belong to GRP 100.
So for load=-1125kN, I can use this to define it.

BEPL FROM TO TYPE P A REF
‘GRP’ 101 PG 1125 0.5 S

Is there any way to define the load=125kN conveniently without calculating its coordinates?

Hello, maybe it could be a possibility to add an additional SLN along the whole geometry just for applying the load. To avoid that the overlapping “unused” SLN is deleted you should work with CTRL DELN 0.
