-3" Porch Level Vs Level of 1st Down Tread
I am using 9.03 so if this problem is a quirk of this version that has been fixed in subsequent upgrades, I will be out of luck.
I have a front covered "Porch" type room that has a -3"(negative 3 inch) Floor Level relative to the 0" Floor Level of the Home. When I create a "Down" Staircase off of this Porch to grade, the first tread (7" Brick Riser, BTW) is only 4" below the Porch. It seems that all stairs function off the 0" Floor Level. For the life of me, I can't figure out to trick this! The "make the first tread a landing" trick mentioned recently does not work because it's Railing is NOT a Stair Railing.
Should I quit trying to find a solution?
I actually prefer to make Brick Steps out of Polylines Converted to Slabs but I haven’t found a quick way to put Railings on them . . .
