2 Right-click, and click Division
3 Select an edge of the curtain wall unit to determine if a horizontal or vertical division is overridden.

selected, e.g., Selected Nested Grid: Secondary Grid, Division Element Definitions: Vertical 3 Cells. If you
accidentally selected the wrong division, click Cancel and reselect the correct grid.
