Using Overrides in Curtain Wall Units
Curtain wall units are subunits of geometrically complex curtain walls, which
often have a large number of different elements, like frames, panels, and infills.
Most of these settings are defined in the style. However, there are cases when
modifying a curtain wall unit directly on screen is more suitable:
â–  You want to add custom frame or mullion edges to a curtain wall unit and
need direct visual feedback.
â–  You want to create an override, like a merged infill or nested grid, in only
one specific place in the curtain wall unit.
â–  You want to experiment with different visuals without having to change
the curtain wall unit style for each idea immediately.
