When we face this problem in stairs to floor connection, we select the last flight (or run) and check off the "end with riser" option from its instance properties. Doing this adds a step in the "desired number of steps" option and revit allows us to create an additional step with the similar riser height, which kind of solves the problem for us without messing with the railing hosted to it.
I think you should give this a try too.

Anyways, thanks for your tutorials. These help us a lot. :)

Solution to no. 1 (Stairs riser doesnt reach top floor) is quite simple. Just uncheck the "End with Riser" option under the stairs properties (while the stairs is selected), and make sure "Desired Number of Risers" and Actual Number of Risers" match. That's it! ✌

How to hide the "above"- lines at stairs... so annoying and yet so simple to solve... if you know how... ha ha ha... that step alone made this video AWESOME!!! Thank you for sharing!

It's the best youtube channel about Revit. Thank you.

The top of those stairs just looks wrong, both in 3D and floor plan. On floor plan it looks like there’s another riser where you created that small landing.The floor should be thicker as well. In reality a floor thickness will always be greater than a stair riser, meaning you will never have that gap. The reality is, that the floor SHOULD form the last step so revit is behaving correctly. You can always check the “end with riser” box if you want.

1. Floor and stairs connection, and the railing problem. Solved with landing, thin line, split line.
2. Show part, about the wall's visibility
3. Hard to select the desired revit family on properties, so just find it on the project browser.
4. When you are annoyed because of the unintentional drag, just change how the Modify tool does. Click select below the modify tool.

Did you try another approach to resolve the issue that maintains stair integrity?
Try the following steps
1- Select the stair
2- Edit stair
3- Select the run
4- Uncheck the "End with riser" in properties filed under construction
5- Add one step to compensate for the missing step and reach the required level

It hits me wen these great softwares give us difficult time for small and basic modeling

You just blew my mind with that railing trim, I've used Revit for over 10 years and never knew that was possible. Stairs, and railings in particular, have always been such a headache for me.

be careful using a landing to deal with the gap at the top of the stair. While this looks good in 3D and sections views, in plan view it looks like an extra step/ going and from experience, this has been an issue with one of our jobs when i didnt quite understand revit stairs and the builder nearly added an extra step but luckily caught it. As mentioned in the comments below, use the "end with Riser" tick box. Even turning off the stair lines as you suggest in plan view can lead to issues with not allowing correctly for head room under stairs because you cant see where the stairs finish. etc. Pretty isnt always best and every line means something. some good tips for railings though. Thanks for your tutorials. Keep it up.

Selection and movement toggle is actually on the bottom right corner, third from right. You can also see the icon too. That is little bit easier.

Thank you so much! this is the most annoying thing ever, took me days to figure out but still watching this to learn more. Thank you, Architect!

*Never thought* *I would learn Architecture from Andres Iniesta* Lucky I am

[bihendramaharjan]

It's very useful. Thank you very much Balkan Architect.

For those who just watched the part about the stair. That is not what you do. (erase that from your memory) What you do is: Once you finish stretching out or dragging out the stair. click on the stair you just made, look in Properties: Construction - Uncheck - End with riser. (that means that your stair will end with a tread instead) That's all you do. if you have a bunch of stairs and do this tip shown for every stair, you will have a headache If someone decides to change the location of the stair. Balkan, for every other tip, thanks.

[asiab]

Thank you a lot for the tip with stairs:)!

[Ciberboy]

Dude! I really want to thank you for your wonderfull vídeos. God blesa you

[ajaichohan]

Thank you kind sir, I learnt a couple of absolute gems. The ‘drag on selection’ toggle i had know clue about, thanks for sharing.

[arrdeep]

Thank you very much man been having this problem with stairs.
