Is there a way to display at the same time these three elements on the same floor plan??
I need to see stairs correctly in my color fills and it doesn't seem to work...

I don't think so if you are referring to colour fills for area plans.

The colour fill disables the slab surface pattern and the stairs show over the top of the colour fill. Not want you always need I agree.

I usually turn the stairs off, since its the colour that defines the area extent visually.

The only way it seems to be possible is to switch to wireframe. The only downside is you don't get walls filled and the room tags don't mask the color making them more difficult to read.

By default the floors are switched off in colour fills. You could switch to shaded mode and give the treads the same material colour as the room fill (Tip: use dark pantone colours)
