I am obviously missing something in preparing my standard railing dimension setting.  In both system and drawing options, i have under Material Dimensions, Railing, the dimensions for railing height set to 36" and post height set to 38".  whenever I draw a railing, the rail is correct at 36" but all the posts draw at 40.5".  I don't understand what I am doing wrong.  

Any Ideas?

 

Thanks!

Is the starting height set to your finished floor level?

Thanks for the response Martin.  Unfortunately, that is not the problem.  

 

My settings have top of deck at about 2" below top of floor.  In elevation, posts draw at deck level, but 40.5" high for some reason.  I have to manually edit the railing and change both post heights down to 38" every time.  This is very annoying, and I don't know what I am doing wrong.test
