Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
In addition to nodal and member loading I'd like to be able to apply a known nodal displacement to a structure, to examine the internal loading that arises from foundation settlement for example.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
At the moment I don't believe there's a way to do this - no purposely written sub/function that I've seen anyways. Is that correct? If so it's something I will work towards including, although I have a feeling it'll require much more familiarity with the existing code than I currently have, not to mention a better grasp of OOP.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing nodal and member loading functionality in the VBA library to understand how loads enter the structural analysis. Done should allow a known nodal displacement to be applied and expose the resulting internal loading for cases such as foundation settlement.
