The design of a staircase is an art - not a science that can be abstracted into some computer-code.
Legal codes prescribe limits of going/riser/nosings/total-raise/angle/steepness/width/headroom/handrails/guarding-heights/safe-gaps[risers/guarding] etc etc…
Your local codes will vary, but almost of them will seek to prevent accidents, infant-mortality and so on…
When I was a lad, throughout the UK there were proscriptive regs about the design of stairs/guarding - but excluding London ! where the District Surveyor could sign-off ANY staircase design !!
So the glossy-mags had many stairs we could only imagine… I remember one three-story spiral-stair with NO handrail !
BUT nowadays the same set of rules apply everywhere in the UK [although of course Scotland have their own all but parallel equivalents !]
In précis - design a staircase and its guarding to move people safely from one level to another…
Well, it would be more likely to surface as a very high monetary fine unless the construction results in injury or loss of life, in which case a prison sentence may become inevitable. Precedent exists where contractors, architects and/or engineers have been subject to civil (and sometimes criminal) prosecution when bullding code requirements have been knowingly violated.
Meanwhile the youth on this planet are busy making YouTube tutorials teaching one another how to ride bikes, skateboards, inline skates, and god knows what else down a set of stairs,… or on top of the handrail,… or going down backwards, or whatever else…
I for one am happy to simply discuss the code, as it applies to the so called “serrated slope”.
Sorry missed your question and message. > working on gov. schedule I guess.
Lesile’s DC is not what you are probably use to, it is a skp file.
context click on model:
select dynamic components:
select component options ;=. that will open up a design input box.
Thx for the response. In the interim, my need to explore using or creating dynamic components has waned. It looks like I don’t really need that type of model to best display my work. BTW, @anme’s answer (many thx for that) resolved my concerns about modifying the bounding box color.
