Stair "Draining" display in plan

Anonymous
Not applicable
Is it possible to display Stair's "Draining" in a plan-view?

I have a stair where I have activated "Draining" for both the Flight and the Landing. It shows nicely in the 3D, but I can't figure out where to turn on its visibility in plan, or where to find any display controls for it.

In the 2D-plan, the risers extend all the way to the edge.

Any ideas? Or any ideas how to model such stair with other method? Ideally within the Stair tool...

Hello,

Thank you for pointing it out to me! I forgot that the default template set Working Unit to 0 digit, that's why 0.1mm shows as 0 to me.

Regarding the double line, I tried again and found that the Tread's Finish Extension, by default, is set at 15mm. If you set it to 0, no double line should appear on the stair. I attached a screenshot of this parameter.

Hope this helps!

Best regards,
Minh

For me it seems to be the "Riser Thickness" that is showing on plan.
But I have only tried it in 22, maybe it works better in newer versions.
