Hey Forums,
I am building a custom curtain wall and need some aluminum angles in the corners. usually they have an angle of either 90° or 45°. I've tried using the preinstalled L-Corner Mullions, which do ~ 85% of the work.
My problem is, that the angles have to overlap the adjacent glass panels by 20 mm. See the screenshot, please.
How would I achieve this?
If I have to model the whole thing it's fine, I just need to be pushed in the right direction as I am pretty new to Revit and I don't know what temnplate to use for a new family of coner angles.
Thanks in advance!

If you use a system panel (glazed or solid), then you can simply click on the panel, edit in place, and offset the edge 20 mm toward the corner mullion.
Or create a custom panel family that is 20 mm wider than normal.
Dear @ToanDN,
thanks for your suggestions. find my comments below:
1. To edit every corner wouldn't be nice to work with, as there are usually a lot of corners in my projects. Your suggestion works, but it's to tedious.
2. I followed your suggestion and created a family where the glass panels overlap by 20mm. for the corners it's working fine, BUT now I got a problem in the middle of the wall for all the other panels.
I attached some screenshots of the problem again and how it should be.
Is it possible to put an "overlap"-parameter in the corner profile family somehow?
Best regards,
Gordon
Okay, thanks. This actually works. But is this the normal workflow for this kind of thing? Because I have to touch every single corner panel. In a room with 4 corners this makes 8 panels that I have to change manually.
Do you know if there's a way of designing the L-corner angle to have the overlap automatically?
I will still choose your last answer as the solution, as this is working really well!
Thank you very much for your help. It's much appreciated!
