Create a railing by sketching the railing path.
- Click Architecture tab
Circulation panel
Railing drop-down
(Sketch Path).
- If you are not in a view where you can sketch a railing, you are prompted to pick a view. Select a view from the list, and click Open View.
- To set the host for the railing, click Modify | Create Railing Path tab
Tools panel
(Pick New Host), and place the cursor near the host (for example, a floor or staircase). As you move the cursor, the appropriate hosts highlight.
Note: To select a level, click in the drawing area to start drawing the railing.
- Click on the host to select it.
- Optionally, on the Options panel, select Preview to display the railing system geometry along the path as it is sketched.
- Sketch the railing.
If you are adding a railing to a run of stairs, the railing must be sketched along the inside line of the stair stinger in order for the railing to host and slope correctly.
- Modify instance properties as needed on the Properties palette, or click
Edit Type to access and modify type properties.
- Click
(Finish Edit Mode).
- Change to a 3D view to see the railing.
