Link Weak Axis (Wind) Loads to Column

I’m designing a king stud column, and I realized that there’s no good way to link out-of-plane load to it. I have two different header calculations for in-plane and out-of-plane, and I can link them, but they only link as axial loads.

Perhaps a toggle or drop down to specify the direction of the load would be the easiest way to accomplish this?

We have encountered this issue as well. It would be a great to get a function to link horizontal reactions from beams onto columns.
