Allow stairs to display hidden construction geometry edges (riser)in floor plans

Allow stairs to display hidden construction geometry edges (riser)in floor plans

Submitted by Autodesk Technical Support for a German resellers: Mensch und Maschine Deutschland GmbH - Please, feel free to vote.

 

Risers of monolitic stairs are not represented in the floor plan views.

Please, allow Revit users to display and dimension to hidden construction geometry edges, such as risers of a monolitic stair in floor plan views. 

 

Why important: 

When it comes to constructing monolitic or precast concrete stairs, the construction and the finishes of the stair (risers and threads) get constructed in completely different project phases. Precast concrete stairs get fabricated, delivered and positioned to the construction site without the finishing materials - and stay there for a good while after they get placed until the project phase comes, where the finishes get cemented on their surfaces - but at that time the concrete stairs already need to be in the right position, otherwise the workers cannot apply the planned plasterwork correctly on the surfaces.

That is why it is important for the Engineers to be able to let the "borderline" between these elments in the floor plan views display and get dimensioned as well...
For better understanding: I have attached a screenshot, where I have marked this needed projection line green.
