Summary: More options to connect beams to truss chords. Allow stick symbol to display both bottom and top of truss.

Description: Typical we need the truss members justification to be the center of the members. But when we connect beams to the top or bottom chord of a truss, we want them to be at the top of steel of the chord. It often requires using a lot of offsets to have beams and beam systems to connect properly. If we could have the option to ignore the truss member justification and allow the beams to connect top of steel that would be ideal. Also if the truss attachment changes shape, the beams attached to the truss chords should adjust accordingly. Also when we have deep trusses we typically have to show framing at the top and bottom of the truss. Currently we only have the option to show the truss stick symbol at the top chord, bottom chord or bearing chord. We need to have the option to display both top and bottom.
