To Project the Side of a Stair

Use this procedure to project the side of a stair to an existing polyline, wall, other AEC object, or solid. Objects to project to must extend the full length of the stair for an interior corner to project properly.

  2. Select the edge of a stair to change.
  3. Select a polyline, object or profile to project to, and press Enter.

Note: If edges intersect, which can happen with only spiral and winding shapes, a solution tip icon displays.
