| Description |
Create a line representing steps using 2 points to define the edge and a third point to define the width. The number of treads is used to determine the stair drop.
|
| Required |
- Two points defining the top and bottom edge of the step.
- A third point anywhere on the opposite side of the stair edge used to define the width.
- Number of treads
|
| Parameters |
{1} is the number of treads.
|
| Example |
Control Code Definition
A control code action 'Steps By Edge' is given a value '{Stepsby3pts} {1}'.
Measured Points
The first point (pt 3) is assigned a code 'STE StepsBy3Pt 5', where 'STE' is the feature code for steps and '5' is the number of treads.
The second point (pt 4) is assigned a code 'STE'.
The third point (pt 5) is assigned a code 'STE'.

| Notes |
- When defining the side edge, the highest point represents the rear of the highest tread and lowest point represents the front of the lowest tread. The width is determined from the point with a height in between the two.
- The number of treads is used to determine the vertical drop between each step and the depth of each step.
