creating a ship's ladder, stairmaker or not

Anonymous — Thu, 09 Jun 2005 16:54:42 GMT

I cannot seem to override the stairmaker parameters enough to build a steep ship's ladder. The ladder needs to be 11'-6.5" high, length not more than 26", 12 risers around 12". These parameters seem too uncomfortable for Stairmaker. If I cannot build this ladder according to the stairmaker parameters, and cannot create a custom stair from drawing elements [same rejection response], Is There Any Other Way to make this ladder an object other than merely building with slabs, et al?

Thanks for the help!!

I resorted to buying a ships ladder from Objects on line to satisfy my model.

It's simple GDL and no specific display in 2D, but maybe enough for your needs.

If you modify/translate it: Thanks for returning the result. When I will have some time again, I will bring it to openGDL.
