Stair setting

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi, I'm working on the first virtual building model I've ever done and I have some issues setting up the stairs so that they can appear in plan as I want them to.

My first problem is with lines: I'd like the visible part of the stair to be represented with a solid black line, and possibly with the invisible structure hidden. As you can see in the attached picture, ArchiCAD draws the one of the stairs as if it were above the cutting plane, although it is not. Am I missing some fundamental check-box?

The second issue is steps numbering: I've set it to always show numbering, both in the relative planeview and the above one. However, for some reason ArchiCAD shows it only in the above one. Again, am I missing something?

Thank you very much!

I have major problems with the stair tool as well... I can never get it to look how I want. It is much better than 11 though, maybe ArchiCAD 27 will get it right
