Constrain in 2-d frame structure

Dear Seismosoft

I would like to ask if it is possible and how to apply diaphragm-constrain in a x-z view of a 2d frame structure-model.
I have tried to apply the constrain myself but the results don t seem to be correct.

Hi,

I'm using that feature (rigid diaphragm in x-z plane) in order to model a rigid wall in a 2D frame. I'm running a pushover analysis and it seems working properly (the deformed shape looks good...)

Cheers,
Federica
