Yes, you can change STM Element or STM Node ID labels.
By default, CAST assigns a unique alphanumeric ID label to each
STM Element or STM Node when it is created; prefix "E" is used for STM
Elements, and prefix "N" is used for STM Nodes.
To change a particular STM Element ID label:
- Right-click on the STM Element in one of the display
windows you open.
- The STM Element Info dialog box similar to Figure
5.1 will be displayed.
In this dialog box, change the ID label in the ID
text box.

Click the OK button to confirm the
input and close the dialog box.
Similarly, to change a particular STM Node ID label:
To change a series of STM Element ID labels:
- From the Display menu, point to STM Elements,
and select STM Element Geometry Info. The STM Element Geometry Info dialog box similar to
Figure 5.3 will be revealed.
- In this dialog box, select the appropriate load condition
in the Load Condition combo box. By default, CAST
will show the load condition associated with the active
display window.

- In this
dialog box, click each STM Element whose ID label is to be
changed in the Element ID column and type in the new STM
Element ID label.
- Click the OK button to confirm the input and close
this dialog box.
To change a series of STM Node ID labels:
- From the Display menu, point to STM Nodes,
and select STM Node Geometry Info. The STM Node Geometry Info dialog box similar to
Figure 5.4 will appear.
- In this dialog box, select the appropriate load condition
in the Load Condition combo box. By default, CAST
will show the load condition associated with the active
display window.
