If you select both the <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Stair<E></E> and <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Railing<E></E> you will see that their references lines do not run parallel as the <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Stair<E></E> reference lines starts vertical.<BR /> <BR /> When I encounter this I manually move the <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Railing<E></E> node. Sometimes, if your <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Railing<E></E> is associates with a slab at the bottom it will automatically move the <I></I><S><I><I></I></I></S>Railing<E></E> node while staying associated with your stairs starting <B>Hotspot</B>.<BR /> <BR /> <BR /> <BR /> Ling.
