Pros of creating balusters with this method - - - - You can TAB select the post, unpin, and move the rail to where they need to be, These posts could now be swapped out. They can be dimensioned, unlike the default baluster posts in railings. You could easily access the properties of this family. Cons of this baluster method: - - Once unpinned, the family does not move with the rest of the rail If the balusters are angled, and you change anything in the existing railing i.e. the path or top rail, the angled balusters have to be fixed again. They don’t retain their base connections. Tel : 086 166 3362 Fax : 086 567 2315 e-mail : [email protected] Physical Address : 5 Pont Road, Bryanston, Johannesburg Page 22 of 24
