It is possible to define the calculation parameters as early as during the creation of a load case or load combination. Settings can be respectively specified in the Calculation Parameters tab of the Edit Load Cases and Combinations dialog box.
In addition to providing an overview of all load cases and combinations, the Edit Load Cases and Combinations dialog box controls the calculation parameters for each load case, load combination, and result combination.
