AC18 to AC21 Stairs importing as objects

Anonymous — Sun, 05 Nov 2017 22:37:29 GMT

Hi guys,

I am transitioning from AC18 to AC21, when i open a project which was completed in ac18 in ac21, my stairs are imported into ac21 as an object and no longer editable as a stair, only an object, so i lose the stair selection settings which i need?

It seems you can make cosmetic changes but not actually alter the structure of the stair.

My only suggestion is to re-model the stair in 21.

Thanks, I thought that might be only solution

I think stairmaker should have kept for at least 2 or 3 versions from version 21.
In every on-going project we migrate there is for sure a stair to be modified ... in this case we have to re-model in AC21 from scratch ... it's time consuming.
