Doors Under Interior Stair Wall

Hello everyone,

 

I am trying to put a couple of doors under a pony stair wall. Either the railing resets so it no longer follows the stairs, or the casing runs up the wall, and a rail section is missing.

Similar issues occur when using the window pass-through option. This works well when the railing is on the treads, though having a challenge with the rail on top of a wall, as the client prefers. Does anyone have any ideas, other than trying to build and place the doors piece-meal?

I couldn't come up with a way for this to work with a railing and door that follows the stair.  It seems that as soon as you put a door in a railing, it will no longer follow the stair.  Even with just a solid rail that's not a pony wall.  Not sure why so you might want to report that Chief as a bug.  I tried a few other things and they didn't work out either.

 

I would probably just fake it with a fixture symbol like you did with the other triangle shaped door.  I didn't try this but you may be able to get the symbol to cut out a hole in the wall without it messing up the railing.  

 

Maybe someone else can come up with a clever trick that works?
