I have been doing stairs for a while now and usually just go with the shortest run required by code from floor to floor, but now I need to do a long set of stairs and am having trouble hitting the target number of risers.  Is there an easy way to just outline the length you want and let Revit calculate the minimum required riser height/tread depth?  Right now it seems to be a task of tediously fine tuning the "actual tread depth" to match teh desired number of risers...

I'm sure it has to be easier, but my training manual didn't go into depth on this topic... thanks!

Because our code here is a minimum tread and maximum riser, we just use those two parameters and let Revit adjust the riser height, not tread length.
