Stairs with 3 flights

[nejcek74]

Somehow I am not able to make stairs with 3 flights going inside same geometry.
Yes, I know I can divide them in 2 or 3 stars, but that's a "caveman's" solution, it doesn't allow changing or adaptions.
So, am I missing something or the stair tool is simply too limiting?

I want to get stairs like one on left (they are drawn with second stairs and manual landing) but the tool doesn't allow me to turn the 3rd top flight back.

Most likely the stair can't cross over itself. It looks like you'll have to go back to that cave to solve this.

Exactly.
You can have as many flights in a single stair as you want, but the upper portion of the stair can never cross over the lower.

Thanks both of you. So, it is as usual, so many options, just not any useful.

Why can't the stair cross over itself? Is that a programming issue?

I believe so.

Hey. Is there a feature request we can vote for? I can't find it so far. I see those stairs with three goings everywhere in my work and real life. When a building has many floors, it is cumbersome to go into a cave for something so elementary. Instead of all those revit-killer plumbing solutions, a simple step to make an already existing Archicad-architect's life easier ...
