I've found the answer to this in the manual...and a dummy stair that goes up and click the "not 3d" option in the object info.

I beleive this is a VW default. What I do is after inserting a stair object, I flip to 3D mode to see it's configuration. If its wrong, I simply move it down with the 3D move dialog box. The arrows don't control the stair layout, they are simply graphics. In this way, when you cut a section, the stair will be in the right place. Hope this helps.
