Stair flip

Tom Krowka

Is there an easy way to flip the rise of a set of stairs. It's a fairly complicated set of winder stairs that took me a while to get right and I don't want to do it over again.

In concept, the stairs begin on the left and rise to the right. I'd like to keep the stairs in the exact same place, but start on the right, and rise to the left.

Thanks,

Tom

Created with AC's stairmaker? If so-
Select the stair.
Open stairmaker.
Check the mirror box.

Mirror comes to mind, too!

Using Archicad 24...Where is the "mirror box"? In the stair settings dialogue thing, I can't find it!

This post is from 18 years ago, before the Stair tool was introduced. Stairmaker was a special type of Object for creating stairs, it is not part of the current application. It seems like the same could be accomplished by mirroring the stair.

 

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your Archicad version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.
