Wall Mounted Handrail Issue

[kingjosiah]

In the handrail type properties, there is an option to extend the railing the length of a tread. The Length option allows you to run the rail out flat a specified dimension. See attachment.

My question is with the graphics of the handrail return at the stair bottom. Anyone know how to control that? It appears correctly on the top landing extension.

Yes, but you cannot extend the handrail just one tread depth. You always have to have a length even if it is small (1" or 20mm) but this still creates a small flat railing in section. I just want the extension to be sloped but I don't think it is possible.

Well how lame is that. I thought that was the whole point of the extension check box. Guess i've only used it with the flat 12" extension on the end, but sure enough, it does not work unless you add a value to the "length" parameter.

You could always just edit the path of the rail to get the additional tread length. You try that yet?

Does not work either.

Yep, you have to add a length. I use 1/32"...not noticeable. Lame? Yes, but that's software for ya
