You may want to edit the baluster family and add void to cut the bottom portion

Is the Railing actually hosted to the Supports? If so, does adjusting the Railing's "Offset from Path" fix?  

[barthbradley]

Ah! I see now what you are up against. What about a "reference" Support in the Arch to "cut" and Railing and then hide this reference in the View(s)?

shall i send u RVT file

COULD YOU PLEASE CHECK IT  BELOW ATTACHED FILE I HAVE TO CUT 

[jpkottai]

THANKS LOT I HAVE ATTACHED BELOW THAT RVT FILE KINDLY CHECK AND LET ME KNOW

i got ur point here but  i did this stringer support by str framing  it not attaching thats what i have to cut excess portion. so if u know plz let me know  

thank you  in advance

Balusters only attach to stringers, not structural framing.  If you need them to cut at an angle then copy paste the stair aligned in place, then add stringers to the copy stair and host railing on that stair.  Then you can hide that stair and you can have the railing.

[jpkottai]

actually i did  that frame here structural framing  bcz of BOQ if i can add in stringer its not connecting properly at corner area which is meeting point  could  please u check above i have attached file 

[ToanDN]

Read my post again. I did not ask you to not use structural framing.

Worst case, you can remove all balusters from the railing and place them manually as structural column or structural framing, then you can trim them with reference planes.

[jpkottai]

i can agree yours i need to cut there to avoid clashes to arch vs str  in this case arch file has stair STR file has framing even if i add the stringer there how can i avoid clashes there  if u know it plz let me know 

[jpkottai]

 see like this clashes i have to solve it let me know have any other way to avoid clashes 

the client need boq for structural framing too 

[barthbradley]

I don't understand the design intent, but my understanding was that you wanted to cut the balusters at an angle at the stairs. If so, I'm doubly confounded by all the base offsets built into the Railing Types' Baluster Patterns. I'm thinking they were your attempts to find a workaround.  

Try this workaround. No base offsets and balusters are constrained at top and bottom to "reference" rails defined under Rail Structure.

one more...

play with these height values to control where cut is made (essentially the baluster "offset"):   

[jpkottai]

yeah thanks for ur effort really thank you so much and did u c that above post i have to avoid clashes with STR and ARCH 

[barthbradley]

Get rid of the kickers and there's no clashes.  So, the issue is not the balusters.  My revised railing works fine. 

[barthbradley]

Change the Kicker Plate Height and edit the sketch to shorten it slightly. 

Then figure out how to resolve this one remaining clash:
