railings - specify distance?

[Dan Park]

The way to place posts will depend on the version of Home Designer you are using.

I the Pro version you can specify the distance between post in a railing by opening the properties and going to the Newels/Balusters tab and specifying the "on center" distance.

In Suite you do not have this option.

You could place a soffit and modify it in a way to create a post. You can then place it anywhere you like.

Additionally in the pro version you have the ability to place a framing member that is a post.
