Steps Wizard
Build a flight of steps along a drawn line, with a typed total rise for steps up to a deck, patio or raised bed.
Create a run of steps from an open path. The Apply panel contains the step configuration and a preview. The source path establishes the run; the offered size, mode and surface controls establish its treads and rise.
Prepare the input and open the wizard
Draw the open line or path in the main editor first, then choose Steps in the Hardscape Add panel. Select the prepared outline when the canvas asks for it. With one compatible shape already selected, the wizard can open directly. The wizard opens a full-window workspace with a preview; it does not ask you to draw inside an inspector sidebar.
Select the run
Prepare an open path from the bottom towards the top of the intended steps. Choose Steps from Surfaces & Paths and select that path when prompted. A closed outline is not the steps input.
Configure the steps
In the Apply panel, choose the offered layout mode and set width, rise and tread controls. Review the resulting count and heights in the preview. Length fields follow the project unit system; type explicit units when needed.
Check the ground and appearance
The wizard can resolve elevations against the current terrain. Inspect the bottom and top of the run and choose the offered surface appearance. The geometry is a design representation; check site and construction requirements separately.
Check and apply
Use Back and Next to inspect the wizard settings and preview. Correct any validation message before applying. Apply on the final step creates or updates the object; Cancel leaves without applying the current wizard draft.
Edit the object later
Select the placed object to use the Inspector’s available editing controls. Whole-object wizard settings and individual Structure editor member edits are different operations. Reapplying a wizard can ask how to handle existing member edits; read that choice before confirming. In the Structure editor, Done keeps member edits and Cancel attempts to undo available changes back to entry.
