I'm playing around with the Ruled Curtain System, and when I try to replace a System Panel with any Curtain Panel (in this case 'Glazed Panel') I get the error, "Can't make type Glazed Panel". :?
Is this just not possible when using Ruled Curtain Systems, because of the complex shapes you can create? It would seem rather odd if you can't.

After placing the ruled curtain system, you need to place a curtain grid :-

From the Modelling menu, choose Curtain Grid or click Curtain Grid from the Modelling tab of the Design Bar.

Open a 3D view. Place the pointer along system edges and a temporary grid line displays. Click to place the grid lines.

Next, add the mullions. Then define the material for the system panels.

for some reason system panels and glass panels are diff. you can't use glass panels in many areas where you can use a system panel. The work around is simple just make a system panel with the material and size you want(identical to the glass panel)

This is what I suspected. Thanks.
