Staircase
It makes it possible to draw an aerial view of a balanced staircase.
Contour must be closed. The tread depth is thus fixed by dimensions of contour and the number of risers.
The contour must consist of a polygon (filled or not) and/or of a succession of segments other than any other type of entity of drawing (not of circle, arc of circle, ellipse, arc of ellipse, spline, etc).
Contour must consist of 6 to 8 segments.
The command uses the "contour" function, see Contour creation
Command "Staircase" from the menu [ CADLO ] - > [ Staircase ] ;
Select all allowed segments of the contour.
Fill up the dialog box with :
the number of risers ;
the distance from the walkline to the inner side, a zero value involves the application of the Standard (french code) ;
the rank of the first winder, a zero value lets the program choose ;
the rank of the last winder, a zero value lets the program choose ;
Indicate the first riser by selecting a segment of contour set ;
The function draws the steps, the walkline.
