Openings in Curtain Walls

Scott Bulmer

To the Tower an Hour club;

In anticipation of the upcoming curtain wall system, what is (will be) the best way to schedule and/or reference openings within that system?

Just trying to do a little forward planning.

Thanks,
Scott

Does it mean a Door or Window in a Curtain Wall can not be referenced with a Marker & then Scheduled?
Any one with AC12 can give a fed back?
Thanks,

I think, you can make a list of elements, where the criteria is selected to element type, and the value is set to curtain wall panel and, door.

It makes sense.... but we will have to wait and see.

Cheers!

So it doesn't appear that you can add a marker reference for curtain wall doors . What are other people doing about this?

Other than having tantrums?:lol:

Graphisoft does know about this.

The doors can be given individual IDs for scheduling. So what's left is faking the graphic of the door marker. The label tool, set to the door marker of your choice can be manually placed. Not nice or live, but works for now. Once the first one's parameters are set up if you have it read the ID you can quickly copy it around the plan. Change IDs in the info box as you go or use the element ID manager to do it for you.

It doesn't appear that this has been addressed in V13, or am I missing something?

If not, Erika's solution appears to be the best way to schedule this.

Any other way to do this. Also, so the info can show up in the door schedule.

Thanks tom
