Curtainwall w/ vertical butt glazing

[cliff collins]

We have a curtainwall design with all vertical joints butt glazed, and all hor. joints with
mullions. Trying to find a way to have the vert. butt glazed joints stop at intersections
with the hor. mullions.....any ideas?

cheers.......

in the curtain wall settings, you can control the "JOIN CONDITION" i've attached a jpg to show what i mean. we have the exact same condition on our building, but since it's a huge building we're showing just grid lines in elevation as much as we can and only putting in the mullions and showing the butt joints when we REALLY need to (plans, close up elevations, details, sections) otherwise it brings the project to a grinding halt.. when showing the overall elevation in our project we wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the mullions and just a curtain grid line anyways.

hope this helps

edit: i added in the mullions to show you that you can control which one overlaps the other..before i added them in i only had them on the lower level cause we're showing that as our typical floor plan and we want them to see the mullions in it.

You can also right click on mullions to slect an entire row and make them continuous.

Of course they can also be edited one at a time for special conditions, by selecting and using the blue "+" intersection tool.
