Stair Path Annotation half hidden

I am creating stairs with the sketch command. As you can see in the linked images, the stair path arrow is halfway hidden on the plan. The arrow head doesn't show, but if I select the stairs I can see it's there. I tried many things. Changing the arrowhead type, making different kinds of stairs, adding/removing steps. The problem seems to occur when making either a C shape stair and/or making many steps, as having only an L or few steps shows the arrowhead perfectly fine. 

 

Showing a normal stair to explain what I want to actually see.

Use Tab key on the Stairs to Select the Arrow, then in the Type Settings is this box ticked?

It is, but I've tried playing with all those settings and nothing changed.

Is it Hidden?

 

  1. On the View Control Bar, click 
     

    Reveal Hidden Elements.

  2. All hidden elements display in color, and visible elements display in half-tone, check the stair path.
  3. Click Modify | Stair Paths -> Reveal Hidden Elements panel.
  4. Select Unhide Element.

Also as a check VV > Stairs > Untick Treads and Risers

Had that happen once, no idea why, acted as if it's hidden underneath something. For me increasing "distance to cut mark" worked. Had to move it a lot, 4 or 5 millimeters.
