MrCEReno Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I am trying to create a stairwell directly below a existing stairwell in order to connect the basement floor to the 1st floor. i have made sure that the stair well continues past the floor of the level above. I have snapped both side to the wall on either side of the stairs. Even with making sure that i have all the dimensions correct when ever i click on the auto stairwell tool it receive a message that tells me that it is unable to connect the rials to one or more of the existing walls or railings so it is unable to make the open below stairwell room. I have tried numerous methods and watch numerous videos from other forums and cannot find anything to help me with this issue. Please can some one walk me through this. In all the photos I have made the wall on the sides of the stairwells invisible in order to get a better view of the stairwell in the 3D view Stair problem.pdf stair problem 2.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 If the auto stairwell tool is not working, you can create your own using an Open Below room as that's all the stairwell tool does -- along with placing railings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solver Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 On the first floor, select the room under the stairs -- select the stairs then Tab to select the room. Give it the Open Below room type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
