Frame Table Locked Internals

With Frame Table Locked internals, if the frame table is updated, a locked internal moves with respect to the change in the frame table definition; that means, a planar transverse bulkhead located at fr35 remains at fr35 even though physically it moves in the X axis as the frame spacing is changed from say 600mm to 500mm.
When you alter a Frame Table (either for the X, Y or Z axes) he will be asked to confirm (via the Update Confirmation dialog) that any internal with this option set, should be updated. If it is updated, any global coordinate in its definition, that means, the Position and any relevant sheer or camber points will be updated to remain at the same frame location (including + or - offset, which is considered as a constant value).
Note:
In extreme alterations to frame spacing, a location given in terms of a frame and
offset, such as '50+200' will appear to be different. For example if the spacings
around this location were 500mm and then changed to 200mm, '50+200' is in fact equivalent
to frame 51 in the new frame table and so will be displayed thus, once updated. Any
subsequent change to the frame table will see the location remain on frame 51.
