Hello!
I am trying to build a curved stairs and started with this ‘rebuild’ curve with points I am trying to figure out how to place these steps or blocks on the curve at the right place. Is there a kind of ‘array’ command that can do this? I’m also not sure how many steps I would need the dimension of 1 step is 0.5ft x 8 ft x 1 ft. stair_curve_0702_rhinoforum.3dm (48.5 KB)
Thank you for your help!
Use Flow command with Roadlike option.
Hello - ArrayCrv is the standard here but it is not ideal for stairs because it does not hold the level orientation as it marches the copies along the curve:
I made a script for this, ArrayCrvFlat which seems to get these cases right, I’ll attach it here

To use the Python script use RunPythonScript, or a macro:
_-RunPythonScript "Full path to py file inside double-quotes"
-Pascal
This is great. Thank you!
