Josh NZ Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Hi there I am having trouble getting the Handrail tool to display correctly. Have turned handrail profile to none and had quite large diameter posts, however in plan view the hand rail still shows and the posts don't. Not sure what I am missing. Quote Link to comment
Josh NZ Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 Also when you view the fence in the model space it appears different than when you view via a viewport. Any ideas on how to fix? Quote Link to comment
Kevin McAllister Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Also when you view the fence in the model space it appears different than when you view via a viewport. Any ideas on how to fix? I think it has to do with Smoothing Angle (Hidden Line Rendering) or Crease Angle (OpenGL with edges on). You need to increase one of these. Select your viewport and click on Background Render Settings or Foreground Render Settings in the OIP. Which one to click depends upon how you set up the rendering for your viewport.

Josh NZ Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 Thanks for that Kevin. In regards to the plan view have tried a few other combinations but the object still does not show correct, only shows what ever is entered in the first section. Not sure how to fix this. Quote Link to comment
Josh NZ Posted June 9, 2016 Author Share Posted June 9, 2016 Anybody please? Have used this tool on several jobs but unable to complete until I can get to show correctly. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee JuanCarlos Posted June 9, 2016 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) Have you tried to set classes to the different components and for the top/plan view override the attribute fill to none of the handrail class Edited June 9, 2016 by JuanCarlos Quote Link to comment
Josh NZ Posted June 9, 2016 Author Share Posted June 9, 2016 Yeah tried that, set all components to a separate class and turned that class off, handrail still shows in plan view. Tried all combinations but doesn't change the appearance. Even with the handrail class turned off and not active it still shows. Quote Link to comment
