stair alignment

I have a revit stair. 

 

As in the picture, I have a U shaped stair. There is the same number of steps both before and after the landing. 

 

Vertically though, the tip of the last thread and first thread do not align.  

 

There is this strange condition wherein the last thread before the landing is 2" beneath the landing, whereas my nosing is 1". Stairs.jpg

That is the nosing distance.

Yes, 

But should the tip of the nosing of that top thread not align to edge of the bottom thread? 

In plan, if I align the my floor to my stair, this nosing goes into the floor if I look at it in section. 

This might be my poor understanding of residential stairs, but shouldn't the floor align to the tip of the nosing and then itself provide a nosing? As it stands the last thread would actually be smaller than the others if this was built.

I think you may be wrongly interpreting the line work in Plan View.  Place some Spot Elevations on those Lines in Plan View.

Of course.
