I am trying to insert a window into a curtain wall via the curtain wall panel. The window, not being a curtain panel window, I have tried inserting it into the family but I cannot as it is wall hosted. Is there anyway I can get around this?

hello, you cant insert wall hosted window in curtain wall panel, you try to nest your window into curtain wall panel. thanks
I've tried to nest it via load into project, but it cannot as Revit asks for a wall to place window in. I may be missing something here but does the window properties need to be altered so that it's not wall hosted?
Make a thin wall type. Then, use it as the curtain panel.
Then, you can insert the window into it as it is a wall.
I started my window (for the same reasons you want windows in your panels I guess) as a generic model (the template which requires no host) and changed the category to window. This lets you nest the window in your panel family.
Hey Guys!
Pretty sure I just figured this one out.
If you open up a curtainwall door family and change the family category to "window", you can then model the panel to look like whatever window type you want, file-save as, and load it into the project. Once it's there, you can click the panel type and change it to your new window. Since it's a window type, it will also appear correctly on your Revit-generated schedules.
I do this too but do you know how to control the "offset" I don't see a parameter for it since it isn't a curtain panel family
