I am trying that a local axe in boundary condition was "Automatic Axes" between two possibilities, Global and Automatic axes. So I write in file.cnd this:
CONDITION: Stress-Load
CONDTYPE: over surfaces
CONDMESHTYPE: over face elements
TITLE: Stress-Load
QUESTION: Local-Axes:#LA#( -Global-, -Local-)
VALUE: -Local-
QUESTION: X-Stress (MPa)
VALUE: -50.0
HELP:Stress on the node along local X axis
QUESTION: Y-Stress (MPa)
VALUE: 0.0
HELP:Stress on the node along local Y axis
END CONDITION
However, it is writing in the file.dat:
2 " -Global-" -50.0 0.0 0.0
It is impossible to get that "-Local-" appears in file.dat

Re: Local axes in Boundary Conditions
In your example there are extra spaces in 'question' fields, and this is not allowed (must be a single word, could use _ to emulate spaces visually)
Instead of
QUESTION: Local-Axes:#LA#( -Global-, -Local-)
must be
QUESTION: Local-Axes#LA#(-Global-,-Local-)
Maybe it was the cause of your problem
(I tested a case with a condition over lines, without spaces, and it has written well in the .bas file)
Or maybe in your model you don't have any face of volume element marked with the condition with -Local- value
Instead of
QUESTION: Local-Axes:#LA#( -Global-, -Local-)
must be
QUESTION: Local-Axes#LA#(-Global-,-Local-)

Re: Local axes in Boundary Conditions
And also remove spaces of other questions like
QUESTION: X-Stress (MPa)
could use:
QUESTION: X-Stress(MPa)
or
QUESTION: X-Stress_(MPa)
QUESTION: X-Stress (MPa)
could use:
QUESTION: X-Stress(MPa)
or
QUESTION: X-Stress_(MPa)
Re: Local axes in Boundary Conditions
How can I mark a face of element with the condition with -Local- value
