Handrail - ladders cut - 03/06/15 08:11 AM

Hi!

I've designed handarils and ladders using Cadworx steel 2015, can someone kindly explain how can I make openings by removing objects (for ex. pieces of intermediate rails, posts etc.).
I would like to do this without having to explode the objects

Thanks!

You can toggle grouping off. I normally use CTRL + Shift + A. You will be able to move individual rail components. Toggle grouping back on when done.

Vanman - Is this method good for Structure 2019 - It seems to ungroup but cannot delete the individual member?

Thanks Byron

For Structure, what you can do is to explode the ladder. You can then edit individual items, but there is no way to combine/group it again so that you can edit it via the palette.
