Stair Properties, Annotation panel

The Stair Properties dialog, Annotation panel, is used to control the display characteristics of the parametric symbol generated from the geometry, especially for 2D representation through Dynamic View.

Often the representation of stair remains unchanged whether you are creating an architectural plan, a reflected ceiling plan or a mechanical plan. It is important to instruct the Dynamic View control how to handle the representation to the stair assembly as a 2D representation.

Stair – 2D Representation

The stair can respect the cut plane definition.

Tip: For boolean properties, set them by either entering T for True or F for False.

Setting	Description
Dimension Style	Sets the currently activated Style from the Dimension Styles dialog. You can set the attributes of the arrow and text from one of the predefined standard styles available from Dimension Styles dialog.
Up Label	Sets to display the UP label in 2D geometry. The default is UP.
Display Up Label	Sets the Up label display on or off.
Display Up Straight Point and Arrow	Sets the Up Straight point display on or off.
Display Nosing	Sets the Nosing on or off for stairs with risers. It is the overlapping distance of one tread to another.
Display Stringers	Sets the Stringers on or off.
Display Stair Numbers	Sets the display of stair tread numbers to True (on) or False (off). Stair numbering displays in the 2D stair annotation. Stair numbering is a numerical sequence label for each stair riser. The label is placed on the tread/landing adjacent to the top of the riser. 2D stair annotations are visible in a 2D model such as a dynamic view placed on a sheet or drawing.
Down Label	Sets the Down label. The default is DN.
Display Down Graphics	Sets the Down Graphics on or off.
Display Down Label	Sets the Down label display on or off.
Display Down Arrow	Sets to display down arrow marked in the 2D representation preview when the stair is extracted in drawing composition through DV.
Break Line	Defines the break line to cut the stair 2D representation at the breaking point. Straight Slanted In the extracted view the representation of stair above cut section is shown in dotted lines.
Break Symbol	Sets one of the Symbol Cells from the Cell Library located in the `Configuration` folder. The path of the selected cell is displayed. The Select ... option opens Select Symbol Cell dialog and sets the break symbol from the selected definition. Browse opens Select Cell Library dialog that allows selecting a cell library to use as break symbol.
