RAILING SETTINGS

Hi,

I need to adjust the height of a railing system in Vectorworks 2024 but the setting is greyed and uneditable.

It's possible you need to edit the Style rather than the instance. With the Railing object selected go to the 'Style' drop-down in the OIP + select either 'Edit Style' if you want the change to affect all instances of the Railing style or 'Convert to Unstyled' if you just want to edit that one particular object.

Thank you for your response.  Unfortunately, the guardrail height is still greyed out even when set to unstyled

Ok if it's just the height parameter that's greyed-out perhaps you are using a 3D post symbol? I think if you use a 3D symbol for the post the height is determined by the symbol geometry, whereas if you use a 2D profile symbol the width/depth/height are all editable within the PIO settings.

Ahhh!-perfect! I was using a 3D post symbol.   I adjusted the 3D post symbol and that worked.  Thank you!
