Stair Wells Are Not Showing Opening To Floors Above

Hello, I'm trying to draw stairs in my model.  The home I am modeling is 3 stories and there is a winding stairwell that goes from the basement up to the 3rd floor.

 

I have all the stairs positioned and sized correctly in the model but unfortunately when I draw the stairs in the floors aren't opening in the floor above.

 

For example, attached is the floorplan showing the stairwell on the 1st floor.  I also have a rendering attached showing the view of the stairwell on the 2nd story.  You can see that wood floors are being drawn in on the 2nd story where it should be open to the stairwell below.  How do I get the wood floors removed in this area???

You do not automatically get floor openings just because you draw a stair.

 

You need to create a stair "room" and designate it Open Below.

Or you can select the stair and on the Edit toolbar, select Auto Stair, which will do a similar thing.
