Railing list issue in 21st version

Anonymous — Mon, 22 Jan 2018 08:00:18 GMT

Hello
I have a issue with my railing list in 21st version and i hope i can find out advice here.
The problem is that i can not make my schedule to shows side or front view of the listed railings.
There are 2D plan Previews and 3D axonometry ,but they do not show how the railings actually are arranged. This fields works fine with other elements ,but not with railings.
I noticed that i can list balusters and posts , but the manufacturers here needs pictures for the whole railing.
Do somebody have idea how can i solve this issue?
Thanks in advance

The 2D and 3D previews are of your actual railing but will always just display a default 'sample' view.
That is because your railing could be any length, multiple floors and can follow any path so there is no front or side views.

It is the same with other elements such as walls, slabs, roofs, etc., and I think even curtain walls.
You will only see a sample representation of what they look like.

The only elements that will show the true extent are objects including doors and windows.
That is why you can show the individual objects that make up the railings but some of these will only show a 'sample' image as well such as the top rail.

Bary ,thank you for the detailed explanation.
I understand what you said, but i would like to find workaround and achieve the showed result.
May be i do not have other choice except to use the current list , but i need the 3D axonometry to show the sloped railings at least.

Do you think i can do something to solve the situation?

Not directly in the schedules.
All you can do is create your own elevations of the railings.
Then place this together with the schedule on a layout page if you need the extra schedule information.

if you really want you can turn the railing into object and schedule them as object
