Did you check the Elevations View? => In the user's Guide => Go to page 42 => there is a section called "To display elevation view". Or simply search the guide using the keyword "elevation"

Go to the plumbing tab => select the sink icon => go to the Library tab => select "Kitchen" => insert the desired sink on the cabinet => the new sink will create the cutout automatically.
If you have a different sink (not in the current libraries), you can open this new sink using the 3D Custom Workshop Power Tool and insert the cutout.

In order to set a staircase, you must create the floor cutout using the Floor Cutout tool (Floor Tab). Notice that the thickness and elevation of the cutout must be the same thickness and elevation of the floor.

You can do this with an island or with a cabinet, setting the desired overhang.
Some tips:
Punch, as any program, has a learning curve. The best way to learn the program, IMO, is practice + practice + practice => Read and follow the manual (this is important), see the videos => try to create elements not related with your project, so you will become familiar with the commands and how to develop the different components. In the manual, you will find information about the Pool Designer Power Tool, staring in the page 353.
In addition, you will find free tutorials in my
Website and
Facebook page If you are interested,
this is the link for the V20 eBook for Windows. My eBook includes tutorials about starting and developing a project, setting floors and elevations.
Hope this helps.
