Stairs don't have any thickness or dimension to them

I'm certain this is either a bug or some simple setting issue that I'm missing. I create the stair with some dimensional element to it, but when it's placed in the drawing it shows up as an ultra thin element. And in section view it just shows the tread/riser outline but no other dimensional stuff. See the attached model. Thanks!

I think this is an Model View Options (MVO) issue, look at MVO > Stair Options > Stair 3D and Section/Elevation: use Full rather than Schematic.
