Adding vertical divisions to a Curtain Wall

[Anonymous]

ok, I have searched the forum and the help files and am not finding what i am looking for. I want to do a basic curtain wall with a double door. No big deal. The problem is I want more vertical divisions. Horizontal divisions you can add but I see no where to add vertical divisions. Am I missing something here or is it not possible? I have looked at the wall in doors and objects, but just don't see a way to do this short of adding a window beside what I have and that just doesn't see right. Help!!!

Thanks

If you start Editing the Curtain Wall in 3D, you can switch to the Frame Tool and insert any Frame. The only restriction is that the new Frame must be between two existing Frames.

Yes, you are right, it is even in the signature. He mentioned Curtain Wall so I immediately assumed it is AC12.
I take it back.

You could place a storefront WINDOW object adjacent.

Indeed, it seems that you can't add more vertical divisions to the curtain wall included in the doors library. But if you look in the windows library, the curtain wall in there can do that.
So, if you look at the attached image, I've combined the two library parts (door + window) in order to achieve the desired result. Please note that for the door object, I've turned off the sidelights and disabled the first and the last frames.

Hope that helps.

Ok then, thanks for the replies. You all answered my question. Basically it can't be done with the single object. I wonder why? Anyway, thanks for the answers. Will just combine the two objects and be done with it..

Thanks again.
