I have placed a curtain system on an in place mass and I can not get the instance to adjust the grid angle. I drew one side of the form and was able to see an angle instance input under the grids and then when I went to the other side, the grid angle instance field was gone. I can not get the curtain wall grid to be at 0 degrees, it is fanning to the shape of the form i.e. instead of being parallel lines, it fans out to equally distribute to the form face.

Take a look at this similar topic.
This reference is exactly my issue. I get the concept of the work around and will give it a try. I don't understand how I got the first face to have an instance that does have a field for grid angle and moving forward I do not have that instance field. Is it possible that I deleted the option for a grid angle?
If you look at my attachment, the curtain grid on the left has the grid fanning. I do not have grid option to set the angle. If you look at the right side you can see the verticals all nice and parallel as I want, when I hit the properties of this grid it does have an option for a grid angle.
And here is how I propose to fix it.
Do not use Curtain System on the non-planer surface. Divide the surface using intersect with reference planes.
Use pattern based curtain panel family.

Thank you all.
I have a sense that I may have warped the in place mass I had created and the two end faces may have been slightly curved and the curved sides could not create an angle instance. I wish there was a way to lock the in place mass to keep it from being sensitive to this. Also, the grips and the distance fields are hard to position.
I ended up drawing a bunch of masses and eventually was able to replicate what I wanted. I think what I found was that when you clicked on an in place mass you saw within it a series of arrows up and sideways. Perhaps for some reason you might not be able to do all sides?
I appreciate the work around approaches. I find it somewhat frustrating to have to back up a work flow and come at it from a different approach because Revit doesn't like something and can not tell you. Once I am an expert and can figure out a hundred ways to skin a cat, it won't be a problem, but it is frustrating.
Thank you again.
