When the Top of Stanchion option is used there are 2 bracket orientation options: Bracket Parallel to Stanchion or Bracket Perpendicular to Rail.

Parallel to Stanchion
For the bracket to be parallel to the stanchion, make sure the angle of the Railing Angle -D field is equal to 0.

Perpendicular to Rail
For the bracket to be perpendicular to the rail, enter the angle of the Railing of Horizontal in the Rotation Angle - D field. Use the Measure Angle tool in a model view to determine the exact angle of the Railing.

When the Center of Top Rail option is used the bracket will be oriented Perpendicular to Rail.
The location of the bracket will be calculated using the angle value in field D and the distance values in fields A and B.
