Point boundary condition - hosted

Hi Damiano,

I was exactly looking for the same thing as you and I tried the same change as you did. I realised then that the first input of the API function for Point boundary need to be a “Reference” (and cannot be an “Element” as it could be for line boundary function). So I tried to change the first input into an element and it seems to work!

(I used it for Analytical Isolated Foundation though, not for Analytical Columns but I guess it should work as well)

However I still have no idea what a “Reference” is and if someone could help me explaining what it is exactly it would be great :slight_smile:

Thanks,

Arthur
