It would appear that the stair option to have slanted risers is only available if the default nosing profile is used. Is this true with you all? In the attached image, I have the risers set to slanted but the concrete pan stair nosing profile is also being used, and so it doesn't seem to want to make the risers slanted for some reason.
Also, how do you guys do about where the top riser meets the floor slab? It won't let me join the stair geometry to the floor.
The 'Riser Type' parameter is dependent on the 'Nosing Length' and the 'Nosing Profile'.
The nosing length is measured from the front of the profile to the back of the thread below.
A slanted riser goes from the back of the thread to the back of the profile (not the front of the profile) at an angle suitable to close the gap.
Is your 'Nosing Length' sufficient?
Regarding the top (last) thread. Have you unticked the 'End with Riser' check-box, so that your top thread is now part of your landing?

Well the top of the stair (the landing) is my second floor slab.
I'll probably just not show much detail in that area, and let them figure it out in the field.
