You could do the one over the stairs as a Profiled wall too, just as two different ones, one for the "solid" frame and one for the wood joists. It would be a small maybe 1') length, then the joists, then another 1' length going side-to-side across the stairs. No objects needed and highly editable.

Me too. And now they can curve!

Nice screenshots/examples of use of profiles, Matthew ... perhaps you would make this a Wiki article? 😉

A downside of using a roof (or beam) as Matthew has done is if you want to create a single schedule of your roof surface area (e.g.) - since these 'roofs' are not created with the Roof Tool. Tricks have to be brought into play to get proper schedules.

Cheers,
Karl

Great..

but actually i've faced some troubles.. regarding documentation... " the right appearance in floor plans"

and sometimes trimming other waals to that.. because of auto-trimming of walls.. i had to change priority to make SEO works
