Can a Label Be Linked to a Stair Flight Instead of the Entire Stair?

Hi,

I'm using Archicad 28.

I know it's already possible to display the total number of risers for an entire Stair, so that's not what I'm looking for.

My question is whether it's possible to place a Label that is linked to a specific Stair Flight instead of the entire Stair element.

If so, can that Label display information for that specific Flight, such as the number of risers in that Flight, rather than the total number of risers of the whole Stair?

My goal is to automatically annotate each flight with notes such as:

13R @ 6 3/4"

For example, if a Stair has two flights with 13 and 11 risers, I need each Label to report the riser count of its own Flight, not the total of 24.

Is this possible with the standard Label tool in Archicad 28?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Operating system used: Windows 11

I don't think so, at least not with out some very clever GDL scripting and a custom label object.

But even then I don't think it would be possible.

You could potentially have any number of flights and landings in a single stair, so long as the upper flights don't cross over the lower flights.

Although the stair is made from many individual components, overall is is controlled as one object.
