Custom curtain wall panel scaling

[martinij]

Hello!
I'm working with making a custom curtain wall panel in ArchiCAD 24. The process of making the panel is no problem. As shown in the attachment I have a 1000x1000 panel with a x on it.

When I make a curtain wall with 1000x1000 grid and the custom panel everything looks fine as long as there is a full panel in the pattern. At the ends I only have 500 in this example. What happens then is that ArchiCAD scales the custom panel to fit in the 1000x500 square.

The question:
Is there any way I can make ArchiCAD not scale but cut the panel to fit the grid? The result should then display a half x instead of a scaled x.

I think it is possible, but you would have to open and edit the 3D script of the custom Curtain Wall panel to achieve it.

That does not sound to scary. I've been looking around in GDL object before but have not that much experience that I can figure it out on my own. Any clues or ideas on how/where in the object I can find the solution?

EDIT:
I've posted in the GDL/Library part development part of the forum and asked for assistance there as well.
