Creating a Profile for a Curtain Wall Unit Frame
Use this procedure to create a profile that you can use to define the shape of
a curtain wall unit frame. You can then extrude the profile to create a curtain
wall unit frame.

point of the profile is aligned with the centroid of the frame.

the resulting curtain wall unit frame.
2 Select the polyline, right-click, and click Convert to ➤ Profile
Definition.

the frame.

You can now use the profile as a curtain wall frame. For more
information, see Defining a Curtain Wall Unit Frame Using a
