I am trying to create a curtain wall system that has panels of glass that are not co-planar. The appraoch I took was to create a mass blend that is triangular and apply curtain system to the face of the mass. I would like to know if there is a faster way to produce the triangular pieces of of glass with creating a mass blend for each piece of glass. Attatched are some snapshot of what I am attempting to accomplish

In my opinion you should create the triangular formas a curtain panel. We have discussed a similar situation in another thread today. Sorry I'm posting from my mobile phone and therefore can't copy and paste it here for you. But if you look at today's thread, I'm sure you can easily find it.

I created a curtain wall family that has the triangular pieces of glass, the problem I have is there is structure that is 12'o.c. and created a warp surface for the glass. Is it at all possible to rotate each panel between the structure, any help would be greatly appreciated?

Unfortunately, you can't apply custom curtain panels on surfaces that are not co-planer. The only way to do it is to make custom generic panels and place them manually.

Thanks, now I would need to work on understanding setting parameters. Is there a setting that will notify me via email when someone responds to my thread???

I think you have to subscribe to the thread. You can find this option above the first post, under Thread Tools.
