Cross-section library databases contain typical cross-sections for eight national design codes with a total count of more than thousand of items. That means a lot of possibilities for the design. But it can also make the process of listing and finding the desired cross-section awkward, especially for repetitive connection design. From version 20, the user can easily mark the desired cross-section family as a favorite one and let it get listed separately from the rest of the database. This speeds up the design process significantly.

User-defined favorite cross-sections.
