REVIT 2016.     See attached pdf for illustration.         So stairs were working correctly in a project . . . and now they are not.  I have no idea what setting I changed or how.

When I make a stair with a landing, the landing has an extra jog in it where a riser should be.        When I open a fresh, out of the box default template and make the stair of the same type and in the same method it works like it should.  

This happens not matter the stair type, height or width.

Thanks for any help.

Hover over the lower run and tab until it highlights, click it and put a check mark next to ‘end with riser’ in properties.

Thanks for the reply.   

How do I get "end with riser" to be on by default instead of after the fact?

That did add the riser at the landing but it messes up the total number of riser/height of the stairs.

Afaik, the landing without this jog is a default setting and the parameters ‘begin with riser’ and ‘end with riser’ cannot be adjusted before the stair is placed.

‘That did add the riser at the landing but it messes up the total number of riser/height of the stairs’ – Can you post some screen shots? You can always adjust the stair by pulling/pushing the blue dot (see pic).

"Afaik, the landing without this jog is a default setting and the parameters ‘begin with riser’ and ‘end with riser’ cannot be adjusted before the stair is placed"

When I go throught the exact same process in a new project (Residential-Default.rte) the first run does have "end with riser" checked.  It is only in this current project  "end with riser" is not  checked and that I am having this issue at the landing.

See the attached screen shot.

Thanks.

This solution thanks to Barth - A true Prince!

Here’s the trick: Select Stair by Component. You’re in editing mode now, right? Now, look directly under the Stair Family/Type see that Stair Drop Down Box – Click to open and see “Stair:New”. Click it! Now, notice the instance parameter are shown below. Check Begin with Riser and End with Riser. Now Sketch your stairs and close out of editing mode and – Voila!

Instant Parameters will remain set that way for all new stairs of that Family/Type until you change it the default again with Stairs:New.
