Cable Railing Home Designer Pro 2017

[BetsyHarper]

Have tried to use cable railing several times and it would seem that you would select it through materials to replace the balusters, However, when I do the cable is perpendicular to the railing. Is this a glitch or am I approaching the option incorrectly?

 

Thanks,

1) Please fill out your Signature -- see below.

 

2) Cable railing is a Panel. First set the stair to use the Panel rail type (under Style), the select the Panel you want -- in this case Cable Railing.

It helps if we know what title (Suite, Pro etc) and version (2014, 2015 etc) you are using. You can add this info to your signature by clicking on your user name at the top right of the page, click Account Settings, then Signature on the left. Doing so makes it always available, and this info is often key to providing a good suggestion

I am referring to exterior deck railing rather that interior railing. The translation may be obvious to a more experienced user, but it escapes me. Thank you for the reply.

NM... I see it now. Change to panel then change material.
