Creating Stair using selection

Hi people
I have been creating stairs with the "create stair using Selection" for with alot of success.... until now. It comes up with a message that says "improper line of travel....."

Is this shape impossible to do?

what am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

The Create Using Selection, I believe, can only have one direction of travel.

You would need to make one stair for each run.

It might be that the filleted corner and the sharp angle in the travel line don't like each other.

Try adding an arc there.

Of course, check whether the start and end of the travel line are exactly on the edges of the fill.

And, get ArchiStairs.

Thanks for the replies
Have just broken up into two separate stairs. Easy option but have inquired about Archi-stair to do more odd shaped stairs.
