Apply curtain wall to a curve

[hroark]

I've applied a curtain wall to a curved pline. Everything looks good except the horizonal members which are formed as 3 - 30 degree chords. How can I get the number of chords to agree with the number of vertical divisions? I'm doing a 90 degree corner divided into 5 equal vertical faces.

As Always....Thanks to all

This all has to do with the size of the curtain wall unit.

From the Help FileCurtain wall units are created in much the same way as curtain walls. You specify a style, a height, and start and endpoints. You can also create curtain wall units by converting a 2D layout grid to a curtain wall or create a custom grid from 2D lines, arcs, and circles. Unlike curtain walls, you cannot create a curtain wall unit based on a curve. Curtain wall units can only be planar.

The English version of this text is, the Curtain wall unit length must be the same size as the
minimum chord length you desire for your curved wall sections. The shorter the curtain wall
unit the more accurate it will represent the curve.

Thanks, Mike

I'll have to play with it when I have more time. But for now, the plan looks OK so I can coast through my presentation. The way things go around here, it'll end up a square corner anyhow.
