i am having issues with the baluster pattern. i am including a revit file that has the railing. this railing has baluster panels all the same size. their are piers that seperate the railings. one segment of railing is 7 panels while the other segment is 8 panels. when i try the railing at the length of the 8 panel railing it does not produce the 8th panel. i keep pushing different buttons and cannot get it to jive.

Hello jledgewood409,

(I have included a modified version of your RVT file, with the setting done for you as mentioned here.)

 

Your 8-panel length is 33' - 10" as shown:

Set your Excess Length Fill parameter to Truncate Pattern and it will allow your panels to continue being created until the end of your length of line.

And the result looks like this:

Note: You must enter length that would allow for that last panel to fully display, or else it truncates that last panel until you do:
