mullions not centered between curtain wall

[nick.108651]

how do i center the mullions in between the curtain grid, whenever i insert the mullions, they are offset from the center of the curtain wall

Look at the properties of the mullion.

[nick.108651]

i did, but it only asks if it is parallel or perpendicular to the ground - this still does not place the mullion in the MIDDLE of the curtain wall - it has it positioned at the end of the mullion

Since the mullion is "attach" a gridline. It,s that grid line that needs to be in the middle. TAB to select it and use temporary dimension to place it in the middle

[nick.108651]

the gridline is centered, however, the panels are not - i am trying to center the panels within the mullions

Can you post the file or an image to illustrate the problem ?

[nick.108651]

not really. but put it this way, when you draw a typicall mullion and glass in plan (5"), you would see a mullion with a 1" glass in between it on each side. i am not able to position the mullion so that it is directly centered on the glass. what is the process of doing this? i appreciate your help

also, how do you insert a curtain wall door, without changing the glass panel to a wall first?

You need to load a curtain wall family and simply replace the panel with that family. You can find some OOTB in the door family folder
