Railing connection issue

Hi,
How can I get AC to create a cleaner connection between the railings?

Took me a while to find this on my own but in Node-Connections area of the Railing Settings, there is a drop down (circled in red) so that you can control the connection settings for the different horizontal elements of the railing. Make sure us you the right one selected and play around with the settings.

A word of caution though, I have found that every time you close the settings window it reverts back to the Toprail by default instead of the last one you were working on.

Try using 'direct connections' rather than the 'gooseneck'.
And make sure you set it to 'toprail' or 'handrail' as necessary.

Hello,
change the radius of the connection in your dialog box from 0 to 5 cm. Sometimes it works...

I filleted the corners in the plan view and it got better.
