Stairs going through doorway... is there something I'm missing??

[HCremodel 0]

I have needed tom place stairs that go through a doorway on multiple occasions, and every time I try it would seem the program glitches and usually breaks the wall or the doorway so you can see the structural materials. The best solution I have found was placing two staircases on either side of the opening, but even that solution isn't perfect. Has anyone found a solution to this?? Am I doing something wrong? I feel like it's pretty common for stairs to go through openings, so it would seem odd to me if chief would not have an option for that.... I attached a picture of what I am encountering. I am using premier x13 beta, but this was also a problem in x12

This is a nuisance.

 

I am assuming you created the opening via a doorway and not an invisible wall which I think is the correct approach.

 

I think you have built the opening too far into drywall.  Try making the opening 1/8” smaller.  But not perfect.

@HCremodel - The stair is going to cut off the top of the wall...thus, if you place a doorway into the wall it will not extend above the stair. The quickest "fix" is to just use a P-Solid...and you won't be fighting the jamb of the doorway cutting away the drywall on the wall surface.

Steve,  you are correct,  if the doorway is on the same floor as the stairs,  the stairs cut the wall.

 

I think you can put that doorway in a wall on the LEVEL above and it will create the opening.  I  alway have a wall above on the level above.
