Re: Staircase generator plug-in This plugin has some fantastic features It's not my fault. All I did was try to help some beginners by adding some legal guidelines.Could it be improved? Yes, but that might be my fault. Man, if Gaudí had had this plugin It would have been really bad for us. Too many restrictions.If you'd had it at the right time, it might have helped you save some money and preserve your self-esteem. A short story: Edison was once asked: “How did you come up with so many inventions?” “Well, everyone knows that something can’t be done. But there are some who don’t know that, and they do it.” ---------------------------------------- A computer program does what you tell it to do, not what you want it to do.

Re: Staircase generator plug-in Ah yes, the "International" code where everything is in inches... i.e. America. I had a quick look, and you've made a mistake. To quote: Stairways shall have a headroom clearance of not less than 80 inches (2032 mm) measured vertically from a line connecting the nosings. I see that your indicators are in the center of the tread, so the tops will be lower than required. |

Re: Staircase generator plug-in Added a "Save as SVG" button next to the standard "Save" button in Shape Designer. https://imgbox.com/9Zs9mvlj When you save as SVG, it will normalize your drawn shapes to their bounding box, save a valid *.svg file, and display a convenient pop-up window with the raw SVG Path string (e.g., M 0.2500,0.2500 L ... Z) so you can instantly copy and paste it directly into the plugin's custom cut out field. ---------------------------------------- Windows 64bit | Intel i7 | 8GB Ram | SH3D 7.5 + Plugins |

Re: Staircase generator plug-in Thank you so much for your work, Xlance! Are your more recent versions of the Advanced Staircase Generator available for download somewhere, or is the development happening in private? I ask because I can only find version 4.0, which does not include your recent work on T-shaped staircases, which I'd very much love to try out! |
