Is there a way to control the dimension between the end of a stair stringer to the nosing? I hoping to set a 2 1/2" offset from the nosing to the end of the stringer.

I answered a stair stringer query in this link below before. Does that help you?

Not really, I did try hitting the tap key and then going to Edit Type. I was hoping to have a controlled distance between the nosing and end of the stair tread of 2 1/2". I have a picture attached of the dimensions at the moment, however the dimension seems to change from stair to stair in the project, usually on landings if that makes a difference.

interestingly mine always are aligned... I have no idea how you got yours’s set to 4".

 

I would very much like to know how to adjust it as well - as I thought there was no adjustability in it.  For reverence, i am using 2018 currently.

Is it "Stringer Carriage Height" parameter you are after?

You may find to stair system family is not the correct one and you may need to start it from scratch.

Stringer Carriage Height has been renamed in 2018.  It is now called "Structural Depth".  It does the same thing - changes the height offset from the bottom of the stringer to the bottom of the riser.  Not the Face of the Nosing to the Face of where the stringer is cut.  That is what we wanted to change.

This is really backwards anyway.  We always use an offset on the top and have to calculate the right number based on the angle.  We hold it down from the top 2 1/2" instead of working from the bottom up.

 

See attached, i've circled the part we have always wanted to modify.

Although how to change the stringer carrage height is useful I want to know if the cut off end of the stringer to the nosing of the stair. I have attached another image to make this more clear: Can I control the dimension from point A to point B? Point A being the end of the nosing of the stair and Point B being the end of the strigner. I'm not sure how else to communitcate this.
