does the seismostruct apply the gravity load automatically after the masses are defined? or should i define the gravity load in "apply loads" using the "permanent load" option??
thank you

Hi 2015james.
In the 'Tools' --> 'Project Settings' --> 'Gravity and Mass' dialogue you will notice a toggle button which enables you to make this decision yourself. There may be cases when you would wish to do it one way, and in some cases the other way. So this is a nice feature.
Best of luck.
