I'm trying to do a large arched curtain wall w/ dbl doors. This is not a problem. The trouble I'm have is w/ the grid lines. I can't seem to create an arched grid line. The images that I have sent are of what i have made so far. The only way I was able to do this was to create the first wall and copy clip it and paste it into the same place, cut out part of the arch in the original wall and keep the base. Then I edited the second wall and cut out the base and kept part of the arch. I then repeated this a third time for the center. Now I've got 3 walls on top of each other and the Mullions don't match up. there's got to be an easier was of doing this, and with only one curtain wall. Thanks for your help.

Personally for the amount of fiddling around you would need to do it in curtain walls, i'd just create an in-place family for the arched section... Which is pretty much what you end up getting with editing curtain wall panels etc... Either that or create a curtain wall panel which already features the arches and substitute that in. After 5 minutes of trying this is the best i could come up with using the basic curtain wall tools done with 2 walls... Still need to add the angled mullions though... HTH.

I did it in pieces and that seemed to work. i know it's the long way around, besides i couldn't figure out how to do what you were talking about with the making the arched paned and inserting it.
