curtain wall spacing of grid

[mattryan]

Hello All 

Is there a way to set the curtain wall parameters to space the vertical grid equally between two points?

So if I have a 16'-6" opening and I want 5 panels it will automatically space them correctly?

 

 

Thank you

I didn't find any way.

But I would also like to have that !

 

Especially when your Curtain Wall has to follow a curved path,

where CW Tool, like rounded Walls, will segment along the path

with different radii arcs.

Yes seems like a pretty basic thing, distribute equally between point A and point B

It won't do it automatically; but, you can set the vertical grid for any size panel you want. From the edit wall style of the curtain wall; go to Vertical Gridlines on the far left and change the spacing.  If the spacing along the length of wall is not the same, you can add as many as you want.

There is a simple way to do this.

-Go to a front view of your curtain wall.

-In the building shell tool set select the Edit Curtain wall tool.

-In the options bar chose the Select frames mode
-Select all your vertical frames,  then right click. At the bottom of the list is an option to distribute frames,  select this and it will equally distribute the frames.
