I have an oblique-angled structure. To create the reinforcement accordingly, I would like to enter a different angle than 90° between the directions. Why it is not possible to change this in Window 1.4 of RF‑CONCRETE Surfaces?

The angle of 90° between the reinforcement directions can only be changed if no serviceability limit state design is performed using the analytical method. If the SLS is analyzed nonlinearly, the angle can be adjusted.
