Riser Count mismatch

Hello Experts Hope everyone is safe and healthy

     I have a small query in Staircase creation, Kindly refer to the below image for additional reference.

26 16 is the number of treads. Risers  = treads + 1.  If you want 16 risers then edit the stair, select the run and untick End with riser box.

Hi @ToanDN 
Can you please explain to me the calculation behind it? It will usefully in the full understanding

[ToanDN]

Explain? Just look at the stair in a section and count the number of risers.

My Question was,
 In the above image, the total length of the stair path is 4000, and the tread depth was 250, So 4000/250=16, Actual number of risers should be 16. But I don't know why there are 17 Why?

[ToanDN]

Do you understand the difference between treads and risers?  You count treads on a plan, you count risers in a section.  Do it, there is no mistery here.

Hi @ToanDN 
Sorry, I was just confused with the number 26 which you mentioned in the above conversation.
As you said Riser Count =treads+1. If we need the same count as tread means, need to uncheck the checkbox end with the riser.
Then I need a small confirmation from you, Tread count is calculated by Tread Count=Path Length/Tread Depth is this correct?

26 was just a typo. Should say 16.

if your stair is set to start and end with riser then the amount of risers will be tread count + 1 as @ToanDN stated.

if end with riser is unchecked then the last tread will be at the same level as your floor and and thus tread count = riser count.

The check boxes are found by editing the stair and then selecting the run.
