Is there a way to edit a railing family so a toe-kick extends beyond the outermost posts as shown in the attached screenshot?

Got it!

 

And to think, I've been modeling in "extensions" for a year and a half. Dah!

not a problem.... i always tell my staff to consider what a tool does, not wat its called, and you will find all sorts of uses for it.  just because its a "Hand Rail" doesn't mean it cant be used as somthing else 😂.
