I have a 4 story building with a basement. When I am on my 2nd floor, I see not only the 2nd floor stair going up, but see the down as I should. However, the down does not stop and I continue to see it as it goes under the stair going up and even when it passes below my floor plate. I have tried making these stairs as a multi-story stair or separate stairs per floor. The issue is there regardless of how they are constructed. It is almost as though the stair going up and the floor are transparent. But, they are not. i have no underlays on, and all items are solid, no transparency. I have this same issue on a countertop with a 1/2 wall below. The counter, although it is below the cut plane, shows transparent and I see the partial wall below. If I pull the wall down just below the countertop, it goes away (wall goes to 2'-10 1/2" and the countertop is 1 1/2" thick with the top set at 3'-0" a.f.f.). Is there some master visibility I am missing in Revit 2009? I do not remember having these issues with the old build.

I have tried that option as well. However, it only works on the "UP" stair. I still see the stair below including it's up arrow from the first floor.

Did you try in that plan view going to the "Override Graphics in view>by Element and turn off the "Visible"??? if this is what you want....

Typhon has probably given you a work around by just turning that stair off if it is a seperate stair but it should not be showing according to your view range..... BUT - Do I by chance see a plan region around the lading window ? Is there something with that which is affecting us? Why not delete that and see what happens.

That works, but then I don't see the down. I'd like to be able to see both the up and down as I should be able to.

So, if you made like WWhub said in the first post "In the view VG - uder stairs - uncheck the boxes "stairs beyond cut", " stringers beyond cut" and under railings "railings beyond cut" - should be work, unless there are something about worksets or phasing....

I know I'm late to the party, but I tried all above and none of it worked. I found a "work around" this issue.I had a stair coming from the basement to the first floor. I could see it while I was on the first floor level. The work around is to apply a filter. 1. Click on the stair then go to properties, Duplicate. Click ok2. In the comment line under that stair property add a comment like basement or whatever blows your hair back.3. Go to Visual settings / Filters / add filter. Add a filter.4. Edit the filter to the right. "Filter by Comment" then type basement (or whatever comment you added to the stair) Click ok5. Then on the filter screen uncheck "Visibility" and BOOM you are done. HTH.

And an even later reply, but what happened to those settings in 2013? I have the same issue. I could have sworn that stair would display in previous versions. At a floor, the stair up would display a portion then hidden, the stair down would display a portion down then hidden.

I'm using Revit 2013 and ran into the probelm of stairs beyond cut line visible.
This might sound counter intuitive, but I have to uncheck all 5 boxes start with <Above> under Stairs of VG.
Then I got the clean cut at the "cut mark".

Maybe that is the problem. The previous version had a "Beyond" VG setting, which the newer no longer has. Why would the developers remove this?

They seem to like to screw things up.... I think - a lot of AutoCAD programers came over to Revit.
In 13, one of our handrail types no longer cuts off correctly. 13 is such a mess!

Wonder what 2014 does about it, we are holding off a bit.
