DesignSeries00056.pngSetting curtain wall panel parameters

The panel settings and appearance are specified in the Panel Settings dialog box. See Concept: Editing guidelines for curtain wall grids to understand how the panel definition parameters respond to custom edits of a curtain wall instance.

If setting up curtain wall preferences, these parameters are available from the Definition tab of the Wall Preferences dialog box. For an existing curtain wall, they are available from the Curtain Wall Grid dialog box.

If a material resource is used to define a component, the material typically provides the fill, texture, physical attributes, and construction information needed for drawings, renderings, and reports.

To set the curtain wall panel appearance:

From the Definition tab of the Wall Preferences dialog box, or from the Edit Wall Style dialog box, click Panel Settings.

Alternatively, from the Object Info palette of a selected curtain wall, click Curtain Wall Grid, and then click Panel Settings.

The Panel Settings dialog box opens.
