How do I draw a joint separate from a line or area object?
Simply go to the Draw > Draw Special Joint command, or click on the Draw Special Joint button, and click anywhere in a planar view where you want to draw a joint. You can draw the joint using offsets from the floating properties box which draws the joint offset a user specified distance from wherever you click, or right click to modify coordinates of the special joints at any time. Use these joints to ‘connect the dots’ in drawing objects, to assign joint loads along the length of a frame, to assign a point load offset and constrained to the structure, or use to extrude joints into beams or columns at any location or angle.
