Can I have two different balluster types arranged totally independent (location/spacing) from each others ?

 

They wd only shared the base. One has top locked to toprail, another has top locked to lower rail.

When you edit the rail type, you should be able to define the pattern for the balusters, each type of baluster and which is their base and top constraints.

I hear you.

Family already in project, I can't share here.

As shown in pix, if I adjust the support divider with less spacing, it will mess up the top draws.

I have to make do with start and end posts, but for longer rail, I need more than just 2 support dividers, hence the question.

This is better done using curtain wall so that you can add / remove mullions, and replace empty system panels with custom panels (drawers) where you see fit.

Thanks ToanDN, I hear you. Will keep that in mind for next similar family.

 

For this family, we are just one step behind completion (more dividers for longer wall). Can you chip in some thoughts?

You will need to keep adding baluster definitions to the baluster pattern (e.g. type 1, type 2, type 2, type 2).
