Use this procedure to create a profile that you can use to define the shape of a curtain wall unit frame. You can then extrude the profile to create a curtain wall unit frame.
The height and the width of the polyline you use to create the profile define the default height and width of the curtain wall unit frame. The insertion point of the profile is aligned with the centroid of the frame.
- Draw a closed polyline of the height and the depth needed for the resulting curtain wall unit frame.
- Select the polyline, right-click, and click Convert to
Profile Definition. - Enter c (Centroid) for the insertion point of the profile.
The insertion point of the profile is aligned with the centroid of the frame.
- Enter a name for the profile, and click OK.
You can now use the profile as a curtain wall frame.
