        Her is a good stair maker (http://www.1001bit.com/products/staircase2.shtml) , it's not free but if you are a student you can have an academic licence, you can give it a try you can do other stuff all so with this script, i hope it helped.

              Why don't you just draw them? You'd have them done by now.

                    Something like this Rock?


                    Stairs

                                rock, with a plugin of my own. I did cheat a little on the u-shaped 12,3,12 set. I created a run of 12 then copied,rotated and moved it into position. The run of 3 was then rotated and moved into place. The elliptical stairs required nothing additional to be done. The plugin has a u-shape option but it assumes stair runs stop and start at a landing.

                                          Well Dave he never asked for it, only about it, so I fealt no compulsion the give it.

                                          Rock, the plugin in question is attached. You can access it through the Plugins menu. There are 3 options, Normal, Spiral, and U-Shape.

                                          Normal is just a straight run with a railing on one side. The steps are a group and the rail is a group.

                                          Spiral is a circular or elliptical stair depending on the Max,Min width input. It is a single group.

                                          U-Shape now accepts "turn steps" which replace the landing if defined. This is a single group also.
