Copy Path of Owner

For a faster and more efficient means of defining a Handrail certain boundary elements defined using a Routing Path have their boundaries copied directly by the system to define an open or closed boundary of the Handrail. The Copy Path of Owner link will present a graphical preview of the Handrail, this might be used when tracing the boundary of the owning Platform, the preview will number the vertexes and the system will prompt you to graphically select a vertex to define the start and end. This provides a quick means to exclude certain facets of the Handrail as indicated below; alternatively the Closed option will close the boundary.

The system prompt requesting you to define the Start/End positions of Vertex 1 for the Start and Vertex 6 for the End will define the following path shown on the left; the Close option is shown on the right.

Once the graphical preview has been displayed the link for modifying the Handrail geometry become active, these provide the user with the functionality to highlight the individual vertex's and perform the specific actions.
