Stair Wizard

You can use this tool to create the main standard stairs with just a few entries. The approach for modifying stairs is the same as with standard stairs: the dialog box for the relevant stair type opens and you can make the desired settings to adapt the stair to your needs and requirements.

Straight Stair

You can use this tool to draw straight stairs.

Half-Turn Stair

You can use this tool to draw half-turn stairs.

Quarter-Turn Stair

You can use this tool to draw quarter-turn stairs.

Double Quarter-Turn Stair

You can use this tool to draw double quarter-turn stairs.

Three Quarter-Turn Stair

You can use this tool to draw three quarter-turn stairs.

Spiral Stair

You can use this tool to draw spiral stairs.

U-Type Stair

You can use this tool to draw u-type stairs.

Single Quarter Landing Stair

You can use this tool to draw single quarter landing stairs.

Double Quarter Landing Stair

You can use this tool to draw double quarter landing stairs.

Free-Form Stair

You can use this tool to draw free-form stairs.

Straight Ramp

You can use this tool to place a straight ramp as a SmartPart in the workspace. You can change the parameters of the ramp when placing it.

Spiral Ramp

You can use this tool to place a spiral ramp as a SmartPart in the workspace. You can change the parameters of the ramp when placing it.

Stair Reports

You can use this tool to analyze stairs according to different criteria. These reports can be sent to the printer and imported as PDF files to the document.

 

 

 

Elevation Point

You can use this tool to determine the height of an architectural component and place an elevation symbol with a label.

Label

You can use this tool to label all architectural elements, advanced elements, instances of smart symbols and objects created in the Object Manager module at a later stage.

Component Number

You can use this tool to give a unique component number to architectural elements.

Convert Elements

You can use this tool to convert architectural elements to different types of elements. In general, the architectural information like material, calculation mode is lost in the process. Below is a list of tools from other modules that can be applied to architectural elements; it is not necessary to switch to different modules.

Copy, Convert Elements Across Drawing Files

You can use this tool to convert architectural elements to different types of elements. The elements are copied to a different drawing file before they are converted.

Show/Hide Junctions

You can use this tool to show or hide junction lines (for example, the lines where walls intersect).

Update Labels

You can use this tool to update the labels for all the architectural elements in the loaded, active documents. In the case of large circular spaces (e.g., rooms based on a 2D circle), the area is calculated according to pi and labeled.

Delete Component Number

You can use this tool to delete the component numbers assigned to architectural elements.

Restore 3D View

You can use this tool to restore the three-dimensional view of architectural elements.

Find Elements

You can use this tool to define selection criteria for finding objects and architectural elements in the active, loaded documents. The elements found are highlighted and can be further processed.

Modify Stair

You can use this tool to change the parameters of stairs you have already drawn.

Line of Travel on/off

You can use this tool to show or hide the line of travel.

Section in Plan

You can use this tool to display a section of the stair in plan view
(3D model is unaffected by this).
