Not environment-specific
If Non-linear elements (i.e. tension only bracing) exist in your model, then lateral loadcases will not be solved in isolation as part of the design process by default. This is because it can be difficult for the solver to find a solution since there are no other loads to counteract them.
You can change the default behaviour and elect to run the lateral loadcases as part of the design if you wish, by going to the
Design ribbon tab > Options> Analysis page and checking the "Solve lateral loadcases in isolation......" box.
