Railing as ZigZag

[martak]

Hey there,
Does anyone know how I can get the corners of my zigzag line (railing) to close neatly? I've attached a jpeg of my settings. Thank you!

Before I offer a suggestion, mind if I ask what you are trying to accomplish?
Is this actually a railing or (as the type name suggests) is this just a graphic to represent wall protection?

Hi Dimitri,

It's a graphic for wall protection. I've read in the forum that in the past people have used railings. To be honest, I really don't know how to best approach this, any suggestions?

Martak.

Maybe you can use the attached linebased detail family ? It´s actually build as a graphic for hard insulation materials, but it looks similar to what you´re trying to do...

Munkholm,

Thank you so much, that was almost exactly what was needed. Cheers!

My pleasure Martak... but "Almost" ? What are you missing ? :rolleyes:

Haha, actually, it worked great, I just tweaked the proportions and moved it from the wall a little and was good to go. It would be cool if there was some way to make the consequent annotations flip when I'm doing them so that I don't have to adjust them. I can get them positioned just fine when doing a southern wall, but have to move them down when doing a northern wall. Any ideas?
