Stair railing volutes in AC21?

[Richard Morrison]

I have not been able to find in the new AC21 stair tool an equivalent for the AC20 Wood Stair volutes at the bottom newel post. These are very common in U.S. residential construction.

I hope I've just missed these somehow, but I'm guessing I haven't. Any thoughts on the best way to approach these now? Use the older AC20 stair? Use a free-floating library part?

Can you show an image of what you mean?

Something like this:

This is far from perfect but it is a start.

Edit the railing so the baseline has the required curve at the end.
Turn the post at the node between the curve and the straight railing to be the same settings as the balusters.

Thanks, Barry! This is very helpful.
