Dear Archicad Developers,
I would like to request an improvement regarding railing documentation and schedules in Archicad. At the moment, documenting railings properly requires creating and managing a very large number of individual views, each one manually placed, updated, and maintained. Whenever a railing is modified, the corresponding view also has to be found and updated manually, which becomes extremely time-consuming and highly prone to errors in real projects.
What I would like to see implemented is the possibility to automatically generate centralized Railing Schedules in which each railing is displayed using its real technical 2D view or true unfolded elevation, extracted directly from the actual model, not as an iconic or generic axonometric symbol.
If such functionality is not feasible within the current Schedule system, it might be highly beneficial to introduce a new, dedicated extraction system specifically designed for generating live technical drawings directly from model elements. This system could address not only railings, but also other complex parametric elements that currently suffer from the same limitation, such as curtain walls, interior finish elevations, etc.
Thank you,
Victor
