  Stair step is caused when there's no space to fit all of the inflation into the model, or there's a problem with an angle. If the mesh is OK then there's no need to fix it. Otherwise (with poor mesh) locate the problem area and work out why that's the case: if you add images into the post we can help as staff can't open attachments.

  Use the "insert image" option. Not sure why element volume would trigger a warning, can you post an image of the warning too?

  if mesh orthogonal quality is is ok then you can proceed.
  
  make sure that min orthogonal quality is greater than 0.1
