Been searching around but I can't figure out how to make concrete stairs step down from an exterior raised slab. Canthis be done with the stair function?

Details:

-slab is around 3ft off the exterior ground - supported by foundation walls.

-slab takes on an L shape and wraps around 1 building corner.

-I need 2 stair runs and they need to connect @ the outside corner, see attached PDF.

-Stair railing needs to connect to horizontal run on slab.

Use the stair function.  Stairs can start from a level or at an offset from a level (+/-) and can end at the same level or offset from that level (+/-) or go to another level (+/-).  No need for a floor to do this.

Did you ever find a solution to create this exterior concrete stair/ L-shaped tread?  I am having the same issue, and I have tried using Stair by Sketch to draw the L-Shape risers, however, I keep getting an error.  How did you build the staircase to meet the top of the 3ft. concrete slab?  I'm trying to acheive the same results... an Exterior Precast Stair at a corner of the building with a 3'-0" concrete raised platform.
