Working with Nested Grids in Curtain Walls
Each curtain wall grid is one-dimensional with either a horizontal or vertical
division. By nesting grids in the curtain wall style, you can create a variety of
patterns from simple to complex.
Example of nested grids
Simple Primary Grids
When you nest grids, you start with one primary grid. Each cell in the primary
grid can then be filled with another grid. For example, if your primary grid is
horizontal and has three cells, you can nest a vertical grid in each horizontal
cell to create a simple two-dimensional (2D) grid. This is the nesting
configuration for the Standard curtain wall style.
Specifying cell division definitions 1
The previous illustration shows all cells in the grid with the same cell
assignment—a vertical division. However, each cell in a grid is independent
and can have a separate assignment. For example, the following illustration
shows a three cell horizontal grid with different assignments in each cell. The
bottom cell contains another horizontal division, the middle cell contains
