[PR] [0.18-0.21_pre] Arch Stair - More Geometry Control? Profile Generator

Thanks for the diagram! Would see how this Riser Thickness could be implemented when there is a gap - currently fighting against the curvilinear railing...

That is Autodesk's software right? Haven't really used software other than AutoCAD.

To apply different materials to differentparts of the objects, that's exactly the purpose of the multi material tool. In a multi-material, each material layer can be given a name. I would use that. See if your object has a multi-material attached, and scan the multimaterial for appropriate layer names (we can add "presets" to the MultiMaterial layer name field like I did for windows, just add a list somewhere in ArchStairs.py and we grab it)

Then, basically it's just a matter of setting the DiffuseColor property of your object. The DiffuseColor is a list of colors, of the same length and order of the faces of the object. DiffuseColor[0] goes to Shape.Faces[0], and so on. If you create things solid by solid, then it's relatively easy, create a list of face colors at the same time, and populate it together.

I think yes but I do not know which one, it was an image that I googled ...

Hi, I created 3d wires with curvilinear LineSegment for railing but found many problems

One being FC crash occasionally - e.g. select the RailingWire in attached file and and apply ArchPipe and it crash.

With latest code, no FC crash.

Curve railing with below form is OK, though problematic on other cases (https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic. ... 81#p285607):-

yes I mean the vertical part, as in the image

thank you

Hi, the Riser Thickness feature is added below, see anybody would test before PR

Works good! Do you have any plan to bound the placement and total height of the stair to two building levels?

Thanks for testing.

Yes, it would be special that this object would be\ dependent on 2 floors / parts ...

Then, thought about creating opening like window... Now the floors maybe dependent on Stairs - to prevent circular dependence, maybe adopt window;s host concept...

Or should the height of Stairs drive the Floor Height...?

Your idea?

I think it would be just brilliant to have the possibility to make the placement height dependant from base floor (using the z placement in a relative way), and height calculated as difference between upper floor and lower floor levels. Instead I don't think that the stair should cut something from the upper floor slab... (at least that's the Revit way: two parameters with drop down list showing list of floors) What do u think?

I do not know Revit Any reason not letting Stairs to help create opening on floors?

BTW, do you want to make a Mantis ticket on the suggested features?

Thanks.
