Is there a setting to control Flr Joists @ Openings (like @ stair openings)

Is there a way to control the number of trimmers created at stair openings.  

 

In the pic below...the software has placed a double trimmer at the stair opening on both sides...but, on one side there is actually a load bearing wall and only a single trimmer is required so that the joists can bear on the wall. 

 

Is there someplace in the software that controls this?  Thanks.

I set the o.c. spacing to 96" (can't set it any higher), autobuild joists / sills then delete all joists (hence the few as possible in autobuild) except stair openings and rimboard.  Then I set all joist in correct location and quantity.  In your case I would just select joist and replicate / move 1.5".....done!
