How do I represent open curtain wall windows in 3D?

Anonymous

Hi everybody, I'm trying to show openable windows of a curtain wall.

I'd like them to be open in the 3d section. I know I can set an opening angle for 2D and 3D representation for windows and doors: can I do the same for individual panels of a curtain wall?

Thanks!

Hi Enrico,

I'm not sure about the IT version, but in the US version, you can control the visibility of the opening lines a swell as the actual opening angle just like other doors. See attached screenshot. I deleted a horizontal member, selected the resulting (merged) panel, opened the settings dialog (cmd-T or ctrl-T) and changed the panel to a 'cw door 12' as shown.

Cheers,
Karl
