Schedule curtain wall

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello, I would like to make the elevations of the curtain walls to appear in the table but it doesn't show up.
Can you help me?

When you define the criteria for the Curtain Wall Schedule, you should use the "Element Type is Panel" criteria, which should schedule Curtain Wall Panels, including Curtain Wall Doors and Windows.

Thank you Laszlo!

I did exactly what you said, and it worked. Pity is, that I'm not able to go to a specified panel in 3D view directly from the schedule via the 'show in 3D' button, since panel is a sub-element of the curtain wall, and cannot be selected without going into 'Modify' mode. 

Only, at least in my universe, panels aren't sold separately nor can a "out of the box" panel schedule help the manufacturer understand the typology of the panel without a complete view and understanding of the entire scheme, including mullions, transoms, etc. Therefore it is quite necessary for a general overview of the curtain wall with markings on the curtain wall itself. At least that's what all my suppliers asked for (Schuco, Reynaers, etc.).

 

This implies that Archicad is seriously lacking support for such a basic thing.

Agreed to all above. I'd like to add that being able to assign window/door markers to curtainwall panels classified as doors or windows is a necessity. I can't make a curtainwall door show as any other door with a marker on my drawings with a zone name + ID. The tool itself is great, but let's get some usable data out of it!

@Hobbesnb you can press tab to select only the panel in the curtain wall when holding the door label tool. It will grab the ID.

And you can set the panel to a door classification, so you can filter it in the schedule, but it will not show the dimensions.

I managed to create a property that colects the size of windows/doors or the size of the panel:

You can do this to each information you whant to show, a property for each information.
