I have build a custom curtain wall panel using morph and save as curtain panel. But when i applied the panel, the unmatched scheme size (the rest size). The panel shrinked, is there a setting to make the panel still on the original size (it is ok if the panel cut off).

Can be done, but not without some GDL scripting.

Any tutorial how to use gdl for automatic cutting panel in curtain panel?

I am not aware of any tutorial for this very specific use case.

I did it with a CUTFORM, which has the appropiate coordinates. You get those from either AC_ClampFreeRegionCoords, AC_PanelCoords, or AC_FrameAxisCoords. Depending on the setting.

If the panel is at the end, you might be able to remove the MUL statements at the start of the script which will prevent it from changing size, then SEO the excess where required? I did that with some lacework but that ended on a wall, so I am not quite sure how it is if it is exposed.
