Curtain wall with AEC Polygon infill assignment
A curtain wall can include curtain wall units. Curtain wall units are similar to
curtain walls except that their grid cells can contain only panel infills, and
not objects. Curtain wall units are designed to represent complex elements
that are repeated within the main curtain wall. You can use AEC Polygons to
fill the grids in a curtain wall unit.
Paving and Tiling Patterns
You can use AEC Polygons to create intricate paving and tiling patterns in a
drawing. Using the join, subtract, trim, and split functions of AEC Polygons,
and by creating AEC Polygons from profiles and polylines, you can create
complex and irregular polygon outlines. By adding edges and hatch patterns
to the AEC Polygons, you can display a realistic tiling and paving look.
AEC Polygon Style Components
You can use AEC Polygon styles to define the look and edge widths of a
polygon. You can use the edges to display framing components of infill panels,
or to represent a shadow. Framing components can have different dimensions,
casting shadows with different widths along the edges. When you render the
curtain wall, you can depict different sun angles with different edge widths.
