Hi FS,

If you intend to do your Punch model "by the book" ;-) and use the exact elements in order to set the Framing editor, Estimator, etc, the answer is yes, you should add small segments of wall (one for each step)--> set the height and elevation to fit the stairs

However, if you are looking for a work around for visualization purposes, they you can try this

1 - Go to your Door Designer Power Tool and create an empty frame (just the frame without the door folder) with the exact shape and size of the opening under the the staircase
2 - create a full wall beside the staircase
3 - Insert the empty frame your created--> set dimensions, elevations, etc
4 - use your creativity to hide the frame "legs" :-D (inside the walls, inside two nice columns ?)
