windows crossing over to other storys not showing properly

Got this problem with my windows.
3 story house. And I want to run these windows up the stair wells. But they wont cut themselves into the walls above of below when they pass through the story levels…

Is there a way to make the show other then making the wall one continuous wall? Cos if I do that then u wont have the wall showing up in 2 of the 3 storys.
And I don’t want to duplicate the windows over each other cos then it will show twice as many in the schedules

Possibilities:

1- Use an Empty Opening in upper wall the same dimension as the window overlap from the wall below. Empty opening excluded from schedule.

2- Use Multi-storey walls set to Projected (or similar) display and appropriate FPCP (but then some windows will show and some won't, depending on their elevation / height)
