You can use the Stair Tool and get close to what you are sketching. At the least this will help you size the treads and risers. See screen shots.

Alternatively you can create the treads with slabs.

Another approach is a hybrid of the two creating a stair with the stair tool for the straight run and then making the corner winders with slabs.

And a screen shot of the settings. The stair tool is not the friendliest of tools, but persevere and you can do quite a bit with it.

Railing styles are limited. You can not use the built in rail and make your own. There are a number of other discussions about custom railing creation. The Simple Bar shown is very handy.

Erika, thanks a lot for the fast answer, it worked very fine. Now I figured out how the tool works, is not the best tool, but do the job. Thanks again.
