I want to mark EQ on the drawing. Can you tell me why not?

I clicked on the curtain wall line.

Hi,

 

Can you be more clear about what you want to achieve? 

Do you want another text instead of EQ? maybe a printscreen of endgoal?

I assume when you click on the EQ symbol, the start and end dimension will state EQ while the middle portion will not.

I only notice this issue exist if your curtainwall is set to fix number, fix distance, max and min distance. Only way to get the equal to work is to make sure your curtainwall is set to none. Then move around the curtainwall grid

Then press EQ and you should get your symbol

Because the the border dimensions are not 1,090 mm.  You can edit the curtain wall type and uncheck this box then you can have EQ for the entire string.  But keep in mind the border curtain panels will not be the same size as the interior ones.
