Rotate and Move at same time?

Box

I know how to rotate and copy, move and copy etc but it seems there must be a way to Rotate and Move and Copy.

For example I have watched several videos about making spiral stairs, they rotate and copy then lift and copy which creates a cylinder of sections.
Is it not possible to Rotate and Lift and Copy then 10x so that it just makes a spiral of treads.

I use the stairs as reference so you know what I mean, but I see it as being very useful for many things.
I can't see a plugin that does it, but then my eyesight is pretty bad.

Maybe Chris Fullmer's Component Stringer?

Or

Chris Fullmer's Repeat Copy?

Watch the videos to see if this fits your needs

Interestingly, component stringer does exactly what I described perfectly. A brilliant way of making spiral staircases. But

My only problem with it is it ....... hang on, just going back to my test........

Nope, no problem, just dawned on me to move the axis and it does what I want.

Excellent!! Thanks once again.
