Modify instance properties to change the selected curtain element's grid pattern.
To change instance properties, select the element and change its properties on the Properties palette.

Vertical Grid Pattern
Note: These parameter descriptions apply to the Horizontal Grid Pattern instance parameters also.
|
|
| Number | If Layout (under Vertical Grid Pattern) is set to Fixed Number, enter the number of curtain grids for the curtain instance. The maximum value is 200. |
| Justification | Determines the spacing of grids along the curtain element face, when grid spacing does not divide evenly into the face length value. Justification also determines which grid lines are first removed or added when the number of grid lines changes because of parameter changes or changes to the size of the face. Beginning adds space to the end of the face before placing the first grid. Center adds an even amount of space at both the beginning and end of the face. End adds space from the beginning of the face before placing the first grid. |
| Angle | Rotates the curtain grids to the specified angle. If you specify this value for individual faces, no value is displayed in this field. Valid values are between 89 and –89. |
| Offset | Starts grid placement at the specified distance from the justification point of the grids.
For example, if Justification is specified as Beginning and you enter 5’ for offset, the first grid is placed 5‘ from the beginning of the face. If you specify offset for a face, no value is displayed in this field. |
| Measurement Line (curtain system only) | An imaginary line that defines the point from which to measure grid spacing on faces where grid spacing may not be the same across the length of grid lines. Where grids intersect this line, the distance between the grids is equal to the grid spacing value (for Fixed Distance layouts) or up to the grid spacing value (for Maximum Spacing layouts).
Where the grids do not intersect this line, the grids can be placed at values either higher or lower than the value for Spacing. |
