When you are working in Advance Steel, if you do not need to have punch marks shown on shear plate connections, it can be quite tedious turning them off, since they are set to show by default.
To remove the punch mark on the shear plate, you’ll need to uncheck “Create marking” under Plate layout in the Shear Plate macro:
To prevent the punch mark from being created for future shear plate connections, go to the Joint Library for the Shear Plate macro. Edit all the entries so that the “Create marking” column is set to 0.
The next time you create a shear plate connection, punch marks should be turned off by default.
