Stairs do not meet upper floor

[cooldood]

I used the straight stair tool.  When I do this the stair meets 2nd floor perfectly but touch the first floor door.  If I adjust the bottom of stairs away from door the op of stairs do not meet snd floor

The stair tool is pre-programmed to try and stay within a stair "Rise Angle" (steepness of the stair object) so when you manually make a stair shorter by removing steps or treads from the stair, it automatically disconnects from the floor above. That attribute is actually useful in helping a designer draw stairs that will not "Meet Code" for stairs (That does not mean that the software always gets things right, it does not but it is programmed to keep people from designing something that will be rejected by a Permit Authority). Take the time to practice using the stair tool after reading the entire section about Stairs in the "Reference Manual" so it is easier to think with and use the stair tool.
