The one you see I made it by 4 slabs over each other. I want to make it with the stairs feature.

Thanks in advance.

After placing your stair at the relevant height and width, select the stair and click on the "Edit" dialogue that appears. From there you will be able to edit the back edge of the top tread to line up with your door.

Hi Ling and thanks for the reply,

But my main problem is at the first (lower) step, of how to cut the corners to match the wall!

Thanks.

You can select and adjust the 'boundary' of the stairs (each side) just as you would adjust a polyline or fill.
This will adjust the shape of the stair.
Don't select the stair 'baseline' - use TAB to cycle through multiple selections if you need to.
Adjusting the baseline will affect the construction of the stair (flights and landings).
