Stairs - wonderful, easy to use stairs

Does anyone know why my Timber Stairs (Stair Straight Wood) are doing this, and how to get rid of it? (I'm talking about the gap in the stringer.)

solid element operations? (if so, find the culprits and use the "cancel operations..." command)

is the stair custom made out of wall/roof/slab elements that might have a beam sailing through on a hidden layer? (if so use put the beams layer on a different intersection priority)

something else?

No, none of the above.

If I change the height of the stair (it's a standard AC object) the holes disappear, but I don't want the stair to be higher.

I just tried the same object, (Stair Straight Wood 10) with default settings except changed flight height to 600mm, and have a funny texture thing happening on one side only (as indicated by the red arrow). Slightly different again with flight height of 900mm. (What height is yours, Bruce?)Also seemed that I could have both newel posts, or just left side or just right side, but could not turn both off!

You need to turn the bottom tread to 'normal' in order to be able to turn off the newell posts. Don't ask me why, but there you go.

Hi,

Has anyone figured out how to get rid of the weird gap in the stringers of the "Stair Straight Wood 01 10" object?

It seems like 3 risers or less is the reason? Also, I don't have a choice of railings when i have 3 or less risers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

thanks!

I hav e had the same problem - it also screws up the section view - so this is an object bug, not a result of stray SEOs - I wish I could help...
