Can't draw stairs in the floor plan view

Can someone please tell me why I can't draw the stairs from the 1st floor to the 2nd floor in the 1st floor view?  In the first floor view, I get a box saying I need to go to another view.  I've never had this before so therefore I must have accidently changed some setting.

You sure you are in a PLAN View and not a CEILING View?

Yes very sure, in fact the ceiling plan is one of the views it's asking me if I want to go to.  In fact, I went to the ceiling view and it allow me to draw the stairs

Precast? Try Assembled stairs or Cast in Place stairs.

If Assembled doesn't work, post a screenshot of this error message you are getting.

When I click on the stairs, this comes up.  It doesn't allow me to change stair type.

Are you saying that you cannot edit a stair in any of those views indicated in the Go to View Dialog Box?

I have to go to one of the views in the "go to box" in order to draw a stair.  To put this simply, if you wanted to draw a floor plan, you would be in the "level one" or in my case "first floor plan".  So then if you wanted to draw the stair, you go to the stair icon, and draw the stair.  But in my case, the dialog box comes up telling me I cannot draw the stairs in the first floor view.  I can go to the ceiling view and draw it then come back to the first floor plan and it's there, I can see it, but this is not normal.  I can edit the stairs in the first floor view just can't create the stairs there.  It's just not normal and I can't figure out why.  I've produced about 100 projects in Revit and never seen this before.  Can I work around it, yes, is it the correct way to do it...no.

Dunno for sure, but I suspect it has something to do with the way you duplicated and named Levels.  Whatever is causing it to spaz out, I've corrected it in the attached RVT.

Did you figure out where you went wrong and fix yours, or did you just use the one I sent you?

So I went into the original file, duplicated and renamed the level or view and it works fine.  You were right, must have been the way something was renamed.  Thanks again.

The root problem was that you had set the work plane for that view to something else. Just change the work plane back to First Floor and the stairs will be able to be drawn.

Thank you for that information.  Can you explain to me how to do that for future reference?

@dallaspr1 : 

 

@Lachlan-JWP is absolutely spot on. I didn't even catch that.  You ought to mark @Lachlan-JWP reply post as the Accepted Solution.  It will help others for sure.
