1-how do I get rid of the little tag between the stairs that doesn't have the riser rake cut out of it? I can drag that last riser line across and it cuts it out, but doesn't cut our the portion below the tread under that riser.

How do you get monolithic stairs to connect to the floor? I couldn't get a bottom landing to work. Just the mid landing. I'd like the underside of the stringer to run through and "fillet" (in AutocAD terms, if you were drawing a section - I am beyond thinking of Revit in autocad terms, but I couldn't think of how to describe this problem) with the stair.

In-place solids and voids is the only way to go for now, until we get stairs that can join geometry with floors. I usually don't worry about that and just take care of it in the details, either with a drafting view and/or a filled region on top of the model view.

Here is what I was able to do.

Not sure what it will do to a handrail.

Big problem is that one landing is the depth of a riser and one landing is the regular slab thickness. The side that is the riser height creeps off the floor level over the height of the building because I have to offset the top and bottom to get it to sit in the right place and I wasn't able to measure the decimal.

Change your landing carriage height to equal your floor slab thickness.

That's how I got the mid height landing to equal the slab thickness.

The lower landing is actually a riser, and so it seems like it's limited to the riser height.

I started the stairs one tread in from the landing where the stair below comes up to. It runs across the low landing then turns up like a normal stair. The last stair come up to floor height above and fits into the cut out I made where the first riser starts.
