Stair tag - show number of treads??

[christo4robin]

Anybody have a way to have a stair tag show the number of treads?

I'm stretching now, but how about length of flight?


I find the stair tag to be not very useful and am wondering if it is possible to create a better one.

Down here we use the number of risers rather than treads.

This is what the standard ( metric ) stair tag also reports, so it must be common in other parts also.

You could use a schedule, add a new shared parameter "Tread#" and calculate its value using "Actual Number of Treads - 1)

You could then make a multi category tag for that.
