Wrapped Stairs

Check Allow Wrap on the Style tab of the Staircase Specification dialog and the selected stairs can be wrapped around the corner of a deck or landing. Curved stairs and stairs with multiple subsections cannot be wrapped.

Edits made to any of the wrapped stair sections apply to all adjacent (wrapped) sections.

To wrap stairs around a landing
  1. Draw two perpendicular stair sections.
  2. Click between them to create a landing.
  3. Rotate one stair section 180°.



  4. The stairs wrap around the corner. Notice that the Up arrow displays on the most recently edited stair section.



To wrap stairs around a deck
  1. Draw a deck if you have not already done so.
  2. Hold down the Alt key and drag stairs away from the edge of the deck using the right mouse button.
  3. Draw a second set of stairs on the other edge of the deck the same way.
  4. If necessary, move the stair sections toward the corner of the deck. The two sections merge to form wrapped steps.
