    Gene,

    I think it a toss up; as each method has it's advantages.

    I used invisible walls to create the landing "rooms" and set their floor heights and platform thicknesses.

    I also used a molding polyline to create the nosing on the landings.

    Since you've chosen to leave the landing rooms as they are, you'll need to edit the framing, but that is only a minor problem if you know how to use the trim, extend, and make fence tools.

    I would suggest that you do a "save as" and try the symbol stairs as a comparison, as it too has its advantages. Don't be intimidated by the symbol creation process as it is not difficult for this type of symbol; and it's another tool that will serve you as you progress.

    Many here are willing to compromise and just accept what Chief will do easily; I'm impressed that you won't compromise on your details. I could really see that in the skylight issue that you brought to the forum last week.
