Hi! I'm having an issue with the reference line of my railings. The end segment of the railing constantly looks at the wrong side, even when the handrail itself is facing the correct side. I've tried toggling the reference line settings, but the end segment itself stays facing the wrong side. Also, if I try to draw the stairs with automatic railings turned on, both sides of the railings face the wrong side and toggling the reference line settings does absolutely nothing. My railings have previously worked perfectly fine until now and I don't know how to fix it.
Thanks!
If you need more info please let me know.

Select the rail and then go into 'EDIT' mode.
Select the top rail end.
I should be set to 'curved end type', then see what options you have in the pet palette.

We are assuming that the top end of that railing has it curving to the same side being correct?
Also, the setting for it is found under the "Ends" tab;
Down, right, left.

Hi Ling! That must be what solves the issue. I ended up copying the railing properties from a previous file that I had created where the railing ends were correct. Hopefully it doesn't happen again; otherwise I'll come back to this reply.
Thanks!!

It can all be edited from the info box...
And in 3D 'Edit" mode...
