How to make Spider Glass System Railings

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello, guys! need some help here.
I could not find any resource pointing to how I can make railings with spider glass fixings, in AC 19 I used 3DMD railings, but they don't work in 20+ versions, I hoped that railing tool could solve it but could not figure it out.
There are four types of fixings - Frame, Brackets, Channels, and Point Fixings - no spider option


Thanks in advance!

As you can see in the Railing Settings Dialog, these Fixing options are available in the "Railing Panel 22" GDL Object. You would have to modify the scripts of the Object to introduce additional Fixing options and geometries.

There are spider connectors in the junction section of the curtain wall tool. (Which I never use.) Any chance you could make a railing with a low curtain wall?
