I tested it, it works, and it's a very laborious plugin. Congratulations!
Some of the new features don't work (yet), but I think you'll get them to work (Y-shaped or T-shaped stairs).
The profile editor is very interesting (at least for me).
May I use it as inspiration for my other plugins?
In return, I could try to organize your source code better. 7625 lines in a single sheet is a bit too much and difficult to manage.

Is the same translator used in the past. The 'funny' constructions is 'my signature', it is part of mine.

Gents, feel free to update/upgrade/improve the plugin as you see fit [:)]

The Y shaped T shaped Inverted T Y shaped are a bit beyond my expertise so give it a try.

And yes you can use the shape designer code or upgrade it :-)

Round landings or Polygonal landings also need to be added ;-)

Hi! I tried to organize the source files a little better.
Here is the plugin and here is the Eclipse folder.
Thanks for accepting!
