Hello all,
Is it possible to tag individual windows within a curtain wall system? I have a curtain wall in which some windows will be operable and some will not. Up until now I have been using the linework tool to draw the extra mullions but I need to be able to label them individually for the schedule. As always any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
April

What you need is a curtain wall panel family for your operable windows and the to tag the panels.

Each peice of glass can be a different "thing". It doesn't even have to be glass. I could be a door, a window, a solid panel, a grill a louver, a revolving door etc... This is done by asigning a curtain panel family to a panel of "glass" These panels can then be tagged and scheduled.
