Hi all..
I have tried the stair in AC21 . and I have got some problem .
the problem is :
the structure shape is still fixed and does not change with the tread and riser ??
is there a hidden button or feature ?
because I had seen Graphisoft do the in youtube with the Bauhaus' stair .

And the stair problems begin.
I really hope Graphisoft put together some downloadable example of different stairs and rails as to know the exact settings can be very tricky to work out.

Anyway the structure can not be modified like the risers and treads.
If you look very closely you will see there is a gap or offset to the riser from the structure.
It is in the settings there somewhere - I don't have it running at the moment, so if you can't find it let me know and I will start it up to find it and show you.

So when they adjust the treads and risers they are not actually cutting into the structure.

There are going to be a lot of 'tricks' that go along with these new stairs and rails.
