Sloping Curtain Wall Boundary Connection

[DGSketcher]

Is it possible to generate an angled cut relative to the CW grid plane within the CW tool for situations where the transom meets the structure at the floor and head.

I know of work arounds using SEOs, just wondering if there is a setting or if a custom profile could be used.

Anything on the ARCHICAD youtube channel with the upgrades to the curtain wall tool?

I've had some quick looks and it seems to be mostly about being able to make more complex grid patterns and such.

For me the curtain wall tool (in ARCHICAD21 and before) is great for early schematic design, but once you want to make things behave in certain ways (like an existing manufacturers system) it starts to fall flat.

I recall there being multiple options for corner connections now, maybe that funcionality will help with connections against other part of the building?

It sounds like the same sort of problem of wanting to have a door without a bottom transom, or a window without having a secondary frame thrown in there.

Thanks for the feedback. It looks like SEO's and independent head and base rails is the easiest option with the main body of mullions & transoms controlled by a SEO intersection with a roof object. The roof object can be used to set the edge angles e.g. the mullions (Target) will finish with a vertical cut where they leave the intersection with the roof (Operator).
