Creating Nodes as specific coordinates and naming the nodes

Creating Nodes as specific coordinates and naming the nodes

(OP)
Hi,

My first post, so bear with me.

I'm attempting to insert a tendon into a bridge model I have. My plan is to use Link8 and string these between a series of named nodes. My model is currently in Workbench (V12). Can someone point me to the commands I need to insert (or otherwise) to create nodes at specific coordinates, and also to then name these nodes. If I can do this then I can just use the "e" command to create the link8 elements between each of my named nodes.

Thanks in advance.
