Join railings on adjacent stairs

I'm trying to join railings on adjacent stairs, both of which are going down. I found this post on a similar issue, but I can't use a landing like they did. Does anyone know of a way I can make one continuous railing between the two sets of stairs?

Hi,

 

Can you try to copy the part of the railing profile and then paste it to the other profile?

Can you create both runs in one stair object?

See attached.

Darn, that sounded like a good idea and I was really hoping it would work! But no, it still only follows one of the stair runs and then floats above the other.

How'd you do that? When I try to make two runs in the same direction, I can't seem to get a landing to work either automatically or manually, and it won't let me create the stair without them being connected.

Sorry replied to the wrong party.

Two railings but move the joint away from the corner.  You end up with splitting line but the transition at the corner will be nicer.

You can either copy the first run, or create entirely new one, but in the same stair object. The fact that there is no landing shouldn't matter. See attached.

That only works if the runs are from the same type, meaning same riser height, which may or may not applicable.

Perfect, thank you! It gives me a warning about it not being continuous, but you're right that doesn't stop it from creating both runs.
