Hi @Anonymous,
Sadly I think the only solution is to model in place...
Railings do not interact with void geometry or walls... (no junction, add, cut, etc...)
Just cheat and make it go through you wall, and do not do a section in it!..
Or go the hard way and model in place!
In which case, first tab-select the handrail in order to extend it (tab select, then in contextual ribbon edit trajectory, and ke it go to the sloped wall)
and then model the balusters...
Sorry.

Ok, I might have found another solution for you...
Here is the idea. You need an object to act as a host for your balusters to consider different heights.
Here is a link towards a related article:
Revit 2017 is supposed to be able to handle walls as hosts for railings:
http://help.autodesk.com/view/RVT/2017/ENU/?guid=GUID-903056FB-76AE-4761-B027-7D1B5CCFD337
So I guess that you should be able to use the face of your wall as a host for your railing, in which case you should be anble to make it adapt by itself!
I will give it a go and then tell you.

Hi @Anonymous,
Took me three posts but found the solution to your problem.
You CAN use a wall as a host for your railing, but you will need to cut your wall in different pieces so that the hosting faces are at the top of the wall. (you pick a wall and not faces for hosting).
I have attached illustations.
There it is!
Done!

Hi FGPerraudin,
I can't get the it right, pls see railing top and balustrate detached. Pls adise what went wrong.
Are you able to show a video of how you did it. Hoped its not too trouble.
Thanks!
That's what happened when I checked "flat"....something is amiss...Pls help
Hi @Anonymous,
Sorry for the delay, French hours...
It looks like your balusters are not attached to your top handrail...
I am going to make a quick screencast, and send it!
In the meantime, can you check two possibilities:

Here is the screencast,
Hope it will help...
Is it me or have you got less options in you railing property panel?

One more question - why did my railing turned red after I adjusted the length?
... Absolutely no idea why!
any filter having been triggered by the change?

not that I know of.... when I drag length of railing nearer the slanted wall, it turned red but when I drag further away, normal normal colour black.
Also, height of railing varies along the slanted wall portion
Waiting for video upload to show you
Video attached, pls click to view

No idea...
As there is a warning, may you have a plugin that highlights them?

I think there needs to be a bit of geometry involved to get the railing showing up correctly. Firstly, the top rail height is not calculated from flat base, nor the peak, but the middle elevation point. So you may need to lay it out on an elevation with reference plane to determine where to end the sketch line. Then create a new railing style with a different top rail height than the standard one. See below, a 1'-6" height railing become 3'-0" when placed on the trapezoid host:
Secondly, you may experience balusters poking up the the top end. So, edit this railing type and either remove the end baluster, or adjust the offset distance.
Hi Toan,
Yes, height of railing needs to be locked. Kindly shoe video of how you place reference plane to contrain height of railing.
Thanks a lot!
