Editing banisters.

Anonymous
Not applicable
I would like to create a banister only with a top rain and balusters. When editing I can hide hand rails, and rails, but when leave edit mode all the elements of the banister are visible again. I would like to know if there is a way I can erase all the elements I want to get rid of without converting the stair to a morph so I don't populate the drawing with polygons.

If you are switching the eye on/off then that is just like a layer - the components are still there just hidden for editing purposed.
This is the same as the curtain wall if you have ever used it.

Some components will allow you to set an 'invisible' type so it is there but can't be seen.

Others allow you to add and delete in the preview panel.
