Revit keeps on restting handrails' terminations

I managed to create 3 stairs with the same handrails but different terminations.

 

The annoying part is that revit keeps on changing randomly the termination of different stairs, by resetting them to the default geometry (see attached).

Since there are no message given, I can just "discover" that. What this could be related to?

Thanks

To understand it more clearly, you normally need to update the railing type settings for each of the top rail or handrail type properties from within the type railing for the end settings.

During this update, we can choose 3 different conditions from the extension settings: Post-Wall or Floor.

Are you saying that within a type setting, these related data are kept constant and that type of handrail or top rail changes somewhat independently of its settings?

If you can explain me and share your file, I can help you in more detail. you can mark this answer as solved if the existing explanations helped to solve your problem.

Thank for the answer.

It is clear to me how the handrail works. The problem, in detail, is this:

i have 3 stairs, let's say stair 1, 2 and 3.
They have three different handrails, with three different termination.

I setup the stair 1. Then I set up the 2. The i set up the 3. No error messsages.
When I go back to the 1, the handrail has been resetted to the default. Then I change it again. But after that, the stair 2 has been resetted. And so on.

I use 3 different types of stairs with 3 different types of terminations. But the problem is overall the same.
Is this a bug? A glitch?

I don't know.

The important thing here is the selected railing type. It is not defined in the ladder and is a separate element. It is only selected as a type in modify when the use of the modeling starts, I don't know if it falls to default.

It is only happening in this file, or is it happening in other files too?

 

Would you be able to upload an example RVT file showing this issue for us to look at?

Hi, thanks for all the answers.

Also my colleague is experiencing the same issues in at least 2 other different projects.

Hi @davidefranco92 ;

 

I agree with @hmunsell. Could you share a rvt. file or a video about the problem?
