A bit of a Noob question

[Pyromantice]

Thank you lew, that did exactly what I needed

Unfortunatly when I was rendering it the program froze up and now I have to restart my new project

Edit: My name is Randall Hanks, I don't like setting usernames as my name in any way though so I just use Pyromantice usually

Ok so I got the split level and everything to work but is it possible to change the railing around the open below to wrought iron? the only wrought iron I can find is in fencing and I was wondering if it is possible to just change the existing railing to be wrought iron without having to delete and redraw?

Yes
Go panels=library=what you want..

Randall,

you are using a landing for this correct?..if so the stair way controls the rail type...so open a stair section that connects to it and set the rail, newels and balusters for it there... you can find some wrought iron balusters in the millwork>balusters,newels& posts>twisted(i like that name)

if you use railing walls to define the area, you can use the individual balusters or use the panel as allen describes...

Thanks that helped but wasn't quite the style I wanted. I'll take a picture when I get home and maybe you guys can help me some because I asked my instructor and he handed me a seriously out dated reference guide and said he didn't know

Bad angles and pictures sorry but this is the entryway that I am trying to recreate:

That last one is the style of wrought iron railing that I was looking for

[Tim O'Donnell]

if you use a railing wall you can make a panel like that using the tools and symbols within chief...

How would I do it? I followed the instructions in your last post and it comes with all the balusters twisted and I want it to alternate twisted/straight/twisted
