Interesting tip from the Autodesk BIM Blog – after you upgrade Railings to 2013, the actual extended parameter values are not populated until you Duplicate the upgraded railing types…see image.
This goes for upgraded Project Templates too – you won’t see the additional parameters until the types are Duplicated.

i'm just itching for the day they realize that railings currently suck and need to be more in line with curtain wall. there needs to be a way to control the division of the railing panels much likea CW panel. Mind you, it's autodesk, i won't hold my breath sadly
