Stairs on the side of a building to show on second floor plans.

[StephenM]

Hi, 

 

 

I am wondering how you get stairs on the side of a building, leading from ground level/main level to the second level, to show on the second floor plans? Is there a way to do it using the auto generate stairwell tool?

 

I've included a couple photos for reference. 

 

Thanks!

There are at least two ways to do this.  You can either use the "reference display" with a view that is setup to just show the stairs on the first floor (but it will show with an up arrow instead of a down arrow), or you could create a room using invisible walls and make it an "open below".

Okay thank you for that!

Do I need create a room on both levels with invisible walls?
