Ramp vignette, first try- deceptively simple?

Postby CoffeeFiend » Wed May 10, 2017 1:23 pm

First try at the ramp vignette. I overall found the program to be a lot simpler than the roof and the stair vignettes. My only real questions are:
1. When drawing the steps I didn't see a tool to indicate the riser height. Did I just overlook it?
2. Where the stair and the ramp handrails come up to the 30" landing, I stopped both rails at the edge of the wall instead of extending them into the hall. Is this correct?
3. For placing the handrails, I drew 3" wide sketch rectangles at the edges of the ramp/ stairs and snapped the railings to the inside edge. Does this work for placing the railings?

Thanks Coach!

Height is not shown. Just provide the correct number of risers.

Wrap 12" extension around corner.

That works.
