  1. Heck yes. I'm working on my first truss project after years of cutting rafters. Thanks for the insight, everyone. This thread has been helpful.
  2. That makes sense. Thanks, Mick. I can see the sigs now that my browser did what I told it to do.
  3. That's the one. Thank you. I have zero CAD experience so this is yet another learning curve.
  4. I finally found the elevation maker. It took me forever. Now I'm wrestling with where the dimensions snap to and how to get it to dimension the balusters along with total width. I see your point about the sig. I've never used them on other forums so it's a new concept for me. I try to be respectful of forum cultures wherever I go but honestly, other than my equipment I'm just not that interesting.
  5. Thanks for the responses. I guess I should have more clear. The only thing I've drawn is the railing. I need to make elevations of different sections to give to the welder. The plan I'm working in has no building, no deck, nothing except sections of railing. I'll try the back-clip thing. I've only been using CA for about a month so I'm still finding my way around. I tried to turn on signatures but my browser is resisting. It seems like the forum culture has a thing for sigs. For everyone's information, I'm using X10 on a Windows computer. Thanks for the tip Kbird1. My username is my name. Did I do that wrong too?
  6. I finally figured out how to modify the stock rails, but I can't figure out how to output the drawing in anything other than plan view. The guy who will be making the railing needs to see it with dimensions. I just need a drawing of the railing by itself without a building, room, etc. It's probably an obvious solution but I don't know it yet. I'm using X10 on a windows machine.
