Wall Panels in Curtain Walls

You can change a curtain wall panel to any type of wall. Select a panel, and then select a wall type in the Type Selector. You cannot explicitly control the size of a panel with drag controls, or by its properties; the panel is resized when the curtain wall is changed.

Changing the location line of the wall panel changes how it is placed in the curtain wall.

Add Inserts to Wall Panels

You can add inserts, such as windows, into wall panels; the position of inserts is relative to the entire curtain wall. If you resize a wall panel by moving curtain grids, the insert does not move with the panel. Its position remains fixed with respect to the curtain wall.

Split Wall Panels with Curtain Grids

You can split wall panels by adding curtain grids to the curtain wall. You can also add mullions to the curtain grids on the panel.
