To Add Prairie-12 Lights Muntins to a Window Style

Use this procedure to add prairie-12 lights muntins to a window style.

You add the muntins by editing the display properties of the window style for a display representation, such as Model or Elevation, where you want the muntins to appear. You can add muntins to display representations individually. You can also add muntins to a single display representation and automatically apply the muntins to all display representations of that window style. You add the muntins block to the window style in the display properties. Each muntins block becomes a display component of the window style.

You can apply the prairie-12 lights pattern to all window shapes and window types except Pass Through.
