(2013) Stair Tread/Riser Number annotation problems

Anonymous — Fri, 04 May 2012 04:54:42 GMT

HI guys,

First of all I love this new annotation but Tag Type parameter seems to be broken.

It always shows number of risers not treads (changing Tag Type does nothing)

Landing is never counted.

And there is no way of changing default values for text size which shows up as 1.1906mm.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Milos

Seems to be working as expected.

Hmmm... That is interesting. This is what I get (see attached) when I use office template stairs. If I use stairs from 2013 template all is well. hmmm... must be something wrong with my stairs or with stairs being upgraded from 2012?

you didn't mentioned that you have upgraded the stairs from 2012 to 2013.

I didn't think it was a problem. In any case I figured our my problem.

What was happening is that in instance options "end with riser" was unchecked therefore creating an extra tread, which leveled with the floor.

Since this is an instance setting now (changing riser or tread finish)

During creating stairs stage select "runs" subcategory and select proper settings. That will ensure that this specific stair types will follow modified settings.
