3D steps

Do you like it?

why not just drawing a loop (the centerline) and defining width and step size via tags?
Or polygons that can be filled with steps automatically?

Exactly this is, what we do :wink:
One can see in the top view the preview and agree or change parameters if the result looks ok or not.

Whether I like it depends entirely on the underlying tagging. I’m not a fan of needing a specialized tool for mapping steps.

Yo need it for avoiding of undesired intersections of steps.
We saw it first during ot the vizualization.
Of course, special tools are not neccesarily, but they are helpful.
