Stair Riser Run Behind Tread

jberkeleyAE5XQ — Tue, 29 Sep 2020 16:10:52 GMT

In my firm, we often create stairs using premanufactured stair treads with a metal plate welded to the back of it. I'm trying to create a stair type that looks more similar to what we are looking for than the default. I want it to look something like this:

I have gotten this far by updating nosing/riser/tread settings:

Is there a way to get the riser behind the tread pointing up instead of in front of the tread pointing down?

I think you've added nosing instead of activating the risers... edit: checkbox in type properties...

The riser box is checked and there is no nosing. I've also tried all of the combinations under Riser to Tread Connection with no luck.

I was able to get it to work by manipulating the riser profile to put a gap at the top.

Don't really get it. Seems to me like you should just use a default profile, not sure what you want to do with it though... "extend riser behind tread"
edit: ah I see, you don't want it to go all the way up. Use a custom Stair Riser profile and then in project browser find your profile type set the correct dimensions for your stairs, you might want to include a nosing parameter to offset it.
