JOE-OBRNC Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I am designing a small deck at a non-standard angle because we are limited by the property setbacks. I need the stairs to run at an angle on each end shown by the red lines I drew in. What is the best way to do this? The flare and curved starter options do not extended far enough and no other option I have found allows me to move the stairs in this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I do this, is there a way to snap the landing rails together and make one continuous rail down each side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvoyeDesign Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 This is basically a skewed staircase. I sense a feature request coming on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdyck Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 use a ramp to make the railing. You can manipulate all of its settings to get the rail where you'd like and keep the actual ramp invisible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkMc Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Did this in X11-bunch of landings, railing to follow stairs. PIA getting the right heights. Made one, multiple copy, heights are off/ Copy top one landing, delete, draw stair one step from top-heights correct themselves, paste back top landing and manually adjust height, delete stair. Draw railing in middle of stairs not quite to bottom, set to follow stairs, move, adjust, copy paste to other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 You can use an invisible wall on each side of the stairs and check the wonders box. The stairs will follow the invisible walls however you place them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt try the OP's setup, true.... but had this one...... winders is set at 48" but I didn't test further...... usually i just go double plus some, from the width. ***edit: It does work , just tried it on the other end of the Deck above.....didn't need to alter default winder contraction even make sure you have ROOM Definition.....or winders don't work. ie you need to enclose the stairs actually...just just an invisible wall each side...see pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
