Thanks for the stairs! I couldn't get the spirals, but the rest are great!

Great Components Digby. It would be cool if I could interface with the stairs also by scaling them. That would make them a little easier to place and then scale them as desired to fit my gap. Really cool though, and it worked perfectly!

Huh, I tried to duplicate but couldn't.

If I make the parent component x=0 then that component stays put on the world x=0 axis. Then if I make the subcomponent x=parent!x (which is =0), then the subcomponentalso stays put on the zero of te parent, which is stuck to the zero of the real world. So far I haven't seen aynthing fishy.

Do you have a component to check out that's doing this?

EDIT: I should be more clear. I have had issues with something along these lines in a component I was working on. But its not quite the same problem. So I do have a feeling there is something possibly screwy with how position is happening, I just can't duplicate your experience yet.

Hey Jim…
Looked at your new Spiral Stair where you “Can set height, deg. of rotation and inner radius” I know it is still in development, great stuff mate. Thanks for the link. 😄
