Creating Custom curtain wall with custom mullion

[emmanuelbee]

I'm trying to create a double glazing curtain wall system which also has a custom mullion. I've created both the double glazed panels and the mullion with no issues, the problem is I'm having difficulties making the panels behave the way that I want them to behave with the mullions. I want the the panels to insert into the space allocated within the custom mullion that I have created, it seems it can be done but I would have to edit the profile of the glazing panel in the project one by one which will take too long. I've attached some images of the glazing and custom mullion and what I want it look like, hope that helps to understand what i mean.

select one mullion and apply offset ...All mullions will change there position relative to the axis

select mullion > Properties>EditType >Type Properties>Constraints >Offset

or/and you can also use offset for the glass panel too..the same procedure select one panel (in plan view) and apply offset - all the panels will align to the new position.

I understand what you mean and I've tried that but it offsets the panels in line with where the allocated gap for the mullions are. it doesn't necessarily offset into the gap. see attached..

When editing the Mullion Profile , pay attention that  Left and  Right Planes - to be " Is Reference"

Hi, I've followed your exact steps but its still not working. I've changed the reference planes to left and right but its not working. is there anything else that I'm supposed to change ?

Forget all I said before....I thought more complicated that necessary...the solution is much simpler .

If you read what is written in the Template , you have the solution....They say that the Curtain Panel stops where the Center Reference Plane meets the Sketch line...

Thank you so much! I've finally managed to do it, I had to make sure that the gap that i had left for the mullions was intersecting the 'Centre/Front Back Plane'. Thanks a lot, this was starting to stress me out a bit.
