Creating stairs

Hi everybody,

I have been looking around for a while, but I did not get the point up to now.
Probably it is so easy, that no one wrote about it - but sorry I didn't get it...

I would like to create stairs between two floor levels, baselevel and basement.
How to remove the floor in the baselevel and the ceiling in the basement-level, so that in 3D-view, one is able to look up the stairs into the other floor level?

Best regards,

Jerry

Re: Creating stairs

Sweet Home 3D computes itself the hole in the ceiling and in the upper floor made by stairs provided with the software (see this example explained in this thread), or stairs imported in the software with a selected Staircase option. If the default computed hole doesn't satisfy you, you can create rooms that will circumvent the stairs, then set the visibility of the floor and ceiling of these rooms similar to this simple example showing how to create a mezzanine.

Re: Creating stairs

Thanks for the quick answer!
Did I miss something or can the above thread be found somewhere in the manual?

best regards, Jerry

Re: Creating stairs

There are comments about stairs in the help (here and also here) which contains more information than the user's guide, even if you can find additional information in the forum.

Re: Creating stairs

I'm happy to use the provided staircases, but they all are up stairs. How to I turn one into a down staircase?

Re: Creating stairs

I think the trick is to start on the floor below.

I have tried to establish the staircase at -11' below, but sh3d does not allow negative numbers.

I am rebuilding my models accordingly.

Anyone with another answer, please chime in.

Re: Creating stairs

No, it's the onely solution.

It's the same thing to add a swimming-pool, you must add a lower level.
