Stairs - Direct Editing of risers and outline in plan

[rudybeuc@gmail.com]

I wish there was a way to directly edit the individual components; treads, risers and outline; in plan. 

 

That way I could model this condition in the stair without a bunch of manual extrudes, overlays, and whatnot. The stair would be one object and everything would be story and level aware.

 

Thanks,

This has been asked for many times, for many years.

@rudybeuc@gmail.com I got information from our R&D team, and this is in our roadmap.

Yes!!!!

As with all roadmap items...we can be confident that it may become available to us at an indeterminate point in the future, like nuclear fusion.

Yes, it is always 30 years from now.

Very easy to remember.

Every year the stair tool gets one improvement, meanwhile the rail and fence tool gets major improvements. How about putting some of those programmers in the stair department. 

My advice to users is, model the stairs yourself. For the time I spend trying to get the stair tool to create a stair that is code compliant and allows me to put rails where I need them, custom tread shapes, stringer offsets, I can model the stair from scratch a lot faster.

Here's a tip from another CAD company. Can't say who, but they are Solid and it Works.
