Hi,

    I recently ran into a problem with modeling a set of monolithic stairs that are curved.  At first I thought it was a visibility issue, but at closer inspection, I'm guessing it has to do with some setting, but nothing that I've tried works.  Anyone have an idea how to fix it?

Looks to me like you have a scope box turned on in that 3D view.

Hi guys

 Thanks for getting back to me.  I don't think that its a scope box issue.  Note that I sent two views...one is the 3d, while the other is an elevation.  The stairs seem to cut off at a certain distance parallel to the underside of the stairs.  The same stair sketch works fine with a non-monolithic stair type.  This is not for a particular project,  I'm teaching an intro Revit class and one of my students presented me with this problem.  The issue seems to occur when the curve becomes tighter.... I see that your demonstration works well, typhoon, but I wonder if you'll run into the same problem if you make the steps belly out at a tighter radius.   I appreciate you guys taking the time.   This problem has got me stumped.  Here's the file

tydalwaves.

there is lots wrong with your stairs and it is not a visibility issue, but rather badly made stairs, im suprised revit actually made them.

easiest thing to do is start again, and do it proberly.

1st you have the worong number of risers 6 when 7 is desired

2nd your risers don't trim with your boundry

3rdly- where the hell is you run line? Revit should not make this stairs.

this is all basic stuff that you should know before tesaching someone else revit, sorry i don't wosh to be mean, but this is a very simple stairs to make and before you teach other you should really have a good grasp of the basics.

Hi King, how are you man??? don't be rude with the guy ok? Puh

Here a SIMPLE solution if you don't want to recreate the stairs but i must agreed with Kingrevit in several things he said...

Hey,

 Thanks for the replies, both of you.  I can handle a little bit of criticism.  I've had to teach myself Revit, as there aren't many people using it where I live and I don't use it at my day job, yet.  I'll take a closer look at this.  In class I always give examples of stairs modeled using the run tool,  I guess I undervalued the importance of the run line to the stair model.
