Feel stupid for asking this but I've tried everything and the stinkin railing just won't cooperate. See the attached file, at the bottom of the stair I just need this railing to return to the wall without any flat portion, so the radiused piece needs to follow the slope of the stair which it's not doing. Hopefully this makes sense.

Yeah David, I've tried a little but when it seems to work, it looks really weird. If keeping the curve and trying to play with Height corrections, the curve twists and looks very ugly. Then I tried breaking the curve into small straight lines, but again, doesn't looks fine. I think you have no choice other than creating it as a baluster family...

Unless someone else has a better idea.

Hey David, I don't think you can do that...I was about to post the same suggestion as Andre about using a baluster panel at the start of the railing with rotation controls as required.
