The Secondary Stair Deformation command is used to move some points on the stair to move to different arrangements in the stair. Secondary stair deformation points are located on the handrails and the line of travel. The movement of the deformation points on the balustrades only affects the form of the railing. The movement of the points on the line of travel, on the other hand, affects the line of travel and, accordingly, the step widths, stair balancing.
