Mullions

When you can add mullions to a grid, the mullions resize to fit the grid. If you add a mullion to an inside
grid, the mullion is centered on the grid. If you add a mullion to a perimeter grid, the mullion aligns so its
border is flush with the outside of the wall.

Profiles for Mullions
You can vary the shape of mullions by loading new mullion profiles into a project. Also, you can create a
custom profile.
Revit Architecture provides some templates for mullion profile families. By default, these templates reside
in the following location:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Autodesk\<product and release>\<Metric or
Imperial> Library\Profiles\Curtain Wall
