Curtain Walls
Informational Message
Switching wall type to family curtain
wall. All dimension references to the side
faces of the wall will be deleted.
There is an invalid curtain panel in the
model. This is probably caused by two
grid lines almost meeting at a border of
the curtain wall or sloped glazing, but
not exactly at a point. The curtain panel
cannot be displayed.
No curtain panel families loaded. Cannot
make arced curtain wall.
Non-system panel families cannot be
used for non-rectangular panels. If your
on the Revit Architecture 2009 dialog. See
Details
Warning message that indicates that if you have placed permanent linear dimen-
sions between wall faces and then change one of the walls to a curtain wall, you
lose any of those dimensions. You will not lose dimensions between wall centerlines
if you change one wall to a curtain wall. See
page 215.
Problem: Typically, this problem occurs in a panel on a sloped glazing. A hori-
zontal and vertical curtain grid on a panel are not meeting exactly at a point,
creating a small triangular panel within the main panel; the triangular panel
cannot be accurately regenerated because it is too small. This message appears
when the program regenerates the curtain panel.
Solution: Cancel placement and/or movement of the panel. When dividing up
panels in a sloped glazing/wall, it is best to start with placement of horizontal
curtain grids and then snap vertical grids to the horizontal grid. This can ensure
the grids meet at a point and eliminate the creation of this small panel.
Problem: You are sketching a curtain wall and then try to unload it as you are
creating it, or you sketch a curtain wall and with the wall command active, you
unload curtain walls.
Solution: If you unload curtain walls, you may be unable to draw another wall
until you reload at least one curtain wall panel.
Problem: A non-system panel, such as a glazed or empty panel, cannot have a
non-rectangular shape.
