Place Curtain Wall Dialog Box: Floor Plan and 3D Window

For general information, see Create a Single Flat Curtain Wall on the Floor Plan.

This dialog box appears during Curtain Wall input in the Floor Plan or 3D Window, after you draw a Reference Line. (It does not appear if you use the Boundary input method.)

This dialog box appears as part of the input process only. To later change the height of a placed Curtain Wall, use graphical editing methods in Curtain Wall Edit mode.

Use this dialog box to define the total height of the Curtain Wall measured from the Reference Line. Choose one of the three icons, each representing a different method for defining the Curtain Wall height.

•Enter top and bottom elevation values of the Curtain Wall. From the pop-up, choose one of four Reference Levels for defining both top and bottom elevation values (Current Story (in Floor Plan) To Reference Line (in 3D Window), Project Zero, any other Reference Level.)

•Enter the total height of the Curtain Wall measured from top of Curtain Wall. Use the pop-up to define the origin from which to measure the top height value.

•Enter the total height of the Curtain Wall measured from bottom of Curtain Wall. Use the pop-up to define the origin from which to measure the bottom height value.

•Enter a slant angle for the Curtain Wall: the angle between the input plane and the Base Surface at its inner side.

Note: This field is gray for a curved Curtain Wall, which is always vertical.

Click OK to close the dialog. The Curtain Wall is placed.
