  1. Load a Curtain Wall Door type >>>
  2. select the Curtain wall panel you want to replace >>
  3. unpin it >>>
  4. From the Properties Palette Type Drop Down menu >>> replace with the door you loaded

 

  • If you want the door itself to be curved, you will need to model it curved

Regular Door or Curtain Wall Door.  If regular Door, replace the CW Panel at the Door location with a Basic Wall Type from the Selector - then host a regular Door to the Basic Wall panel.

Thank you R. I have tried this previously. But the door does not stay curved on the wall. How do I model it as curved?

Once again thank you

There's no curved CW Panel either.  How did you model the panel? As a Basic Wall?  If so, why not do the same for the Door (e.g. use a curved wall for the door)?
