Hi,this is my first time.

I have a problem to drawing a window in the round wall, you can see the picture. Some quys told me to make a false windows with curtain system by line.But I think it is not a good idea.

First, it is hard to select the line on the surface of the curve wall. 2nd, the curtain window cannt be scheduled by the revit.

So who has experience at this part, Please give me some advices.

This issue has been discussed many times, and here are the recommended solutions. This is what Autodesk told me to do.

Thank you for contacting Autodesk Support. Here is the recommended resolution to your Support Request:

This is as a wish list with the development. Currently, if a window is placed in a wall that is non-vertical, the window will remain vertical.

But as a workaround

•You can use curtain wall tools to place a small curtain wall that resembles a window family.
