winterdd Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Hey guys, does CA offer these type of railings? Or maybe I should ask how can it be done besides manual pline solids? The cable inside the "X" members I get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was fairly quick. Trying to remember the specifics -- create the panel with linework, convert to 3D solid, then convert to library symbol as a millwork object. Lastly, select panel for your railing. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 it looks illegal to me remember the 4" rule. Maybe a glass infill would work in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPDesign Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 The picture on close inspection is a cable railing with 2x4's set inside of the cables. I would suggest using the cable railing panels in the library and make the 2x4's in a cross section out of 3d solids as you first mention. Then block them and move into position in plan view.

robdyck Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 It's not difficult to use an existing symbol of cable railing, add the cross pieces, and create a new millwork symbol to use as a panel. I'd create the cross pieces and the border using a molding in hopes that woodgrain will apply correctly if you ever need a wood material for the panel.
