If you're not performing Braceworks calculations, you may wish to convert a truss into a symbol and use that in the drawing instead. This can improve performance if you have a large number of trusses. However, if you are performing calculations, you must use actual truss objects, not converted symbols.
To convert a truss to a symbol:
Select the truss (or multiple truss objects) to convert.
Select the command.
An alert opens, informing you how many objects were converted.
Each type of truss is converted to a hybrid symbol. The symbol is named after the original truss name.
