How to change the landing width of a half turn stairs?

Post by Roy_043 »

When I create a half turn stairs (Arch_Stairs) there is zero distance between the two flights. There seems to be no way to change the width of the landing. The "Width of Landing" property has no effect here AFAICT.

At some point we really need to redesign the stairs tool... it's getting too big and complex and is still buggy :)

What is in your mind ? :)

The half-turn stair was kind of intermediate product, more complicated stair flight+landing+flight composition could be created - viewtopic.php?t=29358&start=90#p264882

Thanks Paul, I was unaware that this was already possible. Test with such complex stairs showed an issue with Bug fix #8444. Fixed with #8518.
