Hello,

Yes, I just tried it (Archicad 25) and it seems the 'structure' ids always the top height of the stair, no matter where you place the dimension.

Treads work fine.

I am sure it used to work - not that I ever use it.

I am sure there was a video or something in the manual (or somewhere) that showed how this work.

If I get a chance to go looking and I find anything I will let you know.

Thank you 🙂

OK I found this video that explains what is happening.

Version 22, but I am sure nothing has changed.

 

It seems the level dimension can not show the height of the structure for each individual step.

It is the top structural height of the flight or landing.

At about 1.26 in this video it mentions this.
