Aligning storefront with core exterior/grid

Hi all, first time posting here, apologies if I screw anything up. Our office is starting to work in Revit, transferring from AutoCAD. One of our drafting standards is that grid lines are to the exterior face of sheathing, and the exterior of storefront units are aligned with the grid/exterior face of sheathing. How do I create this relationship in Revit? I have the wall created with the plywood sheathing inside the core. Gridlines are justified to the core exterior, however I can't seem to move the storefront unit from the centerline of core. See attached image showing the current relationship in Revit. Any help is greatly appreciated!

If the "Core" of your question is whether or not you can change a Curtain Wall's justification to something other than Centerline; then the answer is: you can't.  You can offset panels and mullions, but that's not going to help you with aligning to Grids.

You can align the center line of the curtain wall to the grid line, then manually offset it in 1/2 the depth of itself.

Simply select the storefront, one blue dot will appears in both ends of it.

Just right click on the blue dot, and select "Disallow Join"option from appeared menu.

Do it for both end of the storefront.

Now you can able to move the storefront to anywhere you want by selecting the storefront and just move.

Hope your problem will solved.
