how can i hide the finish of the stair ( raiser, tread) in a load bearing element 3D View?

Unfortunately the stair finishes do not work with Partial Structure Display.
You can turn them off in the stair, but that will turn them off everywhere you see that stair.
I was going to suggest duplicating the stair in different layers that you cn turn on/off for your views.
Turn the treads and risers off in the structural view.
But that actually affects the size and position of the structural part of the stair, it doesn't just hide the treads and risers.
I just tried Renovation filters - set the structure to existing and the treads and risers to new, but that didn't seem to work either.
Still can't hide just the treads and risers.
And Graphic Overrides don't seem to be able to isolate just the treads and risers - I was thinking of making them transparent.
The best I could come up with is to duplicate the stair and set one with air space (transparent) building materials with with 3D outlines.

Thanks Barry, missing core and finishing functions in the stair structure

Thanks Barry. Sadly, this is not a solution, it's just a cumbersome workaround. I still don't undertsand why Graphisoft is not offering a real solution to this, after the new stairs tool was introduced many versions -many years- ago. I wish they work more on the coherence of the tools, on their consistency across all elements. An example is the openings tool, it took them 5 versions since its introduction to make it work with roofs, but they have done it now. Other issues like this, stair finishings, seem to be neglected.

i was thinking that the solution is to have a model view option with the stair finishings off, and forget about partial element display on the stairs

There is a solution that might help in the following thread. Stair and partial structure display
