Specifying default and profile-based mullions
You create mullion definitions for a specific curtain wall unit style and those
definitions can be assigned only to mullions in curtain wall units of that style.
You can create as many mullion definitions as you want, and then assign the
definitions to mullions as needed. If you have nested grids, each grid has its
own mullions. There is a default mullion definition that you can modify as
needed that is used for any unassigned mullions. For more information, see
Assigning Definitions to the Mullions of a Curtain Wall Unit on page 1611.
TIP You can copy a frame definition and use it as a mullion definition. Select the
frame definition and drag it to Mullions in the left pane of the dialog box.
Materials and Display Properties for Mullions
If you do not use materials to control the display properties of mullions, you
can specify their display properties in the curtain wall unit style. The layer,
color, linetype, and other display properties of the default mullion are applied
to all mullions unless you create a custom display component for each
definition. You can then control the display of each mullion definition
independently. For more information, see Specifying the Display of Curtain
Wall Units on page 1617.
Defining Curtain Wall Unit Mullions by Width and Depth
You can define mullions by specifying a width and a depth.
