Railing break mark

Hello,

I've been having this issue for a long time, and I figured I wouldn't have anything to lose by asking here for a possible solution.

When dealing with rails that have their end nodes at different levels, and the floor plan needs to show a break mark, I never know whether that break mark will be editable or not. What I mean is that the three handles I've marked in the screenshot don't always appear. Does anybody know what might be causing this?

I have a rail that shows the break mark, but I can never access those three handles to change its parameters (position, angle, width, etc.). Then I use the eyedropper tool to pick up the rail settings and create a new one under similar conditions, and this time the handles work fine.

It just drives me crazy. I don't know what determines whether those handles are available or not.

Thank you!

@Titiriga,

 

Are you saying that the Break Mark is sometimes graphically editable and sometimes it is not? I am checking this in Ac29, but it is never editable for me. I was thinking maybe it depends on whether the "Use Break Mark Settings of Associated Stair" checkbox is checked or not, but for me, it is never editable graphically, I always have to go to the settings dialog and change the various values there.
