- [Instructor] If you watched last week's tip, we talked about creating curved curtain wall mullions, and the trick there was to edit the profile of the curtain wall. Because you can't actually create curved grid lines internally to the curtain wall, but you can have curved outer edges. So what I've got here is sort of the extreme example of that situation where not only have I curved one edge or the other, but I've actually curved it all the way around and made this round, sort of spoked window.

The downside of this approach is I actually have to layer a couple different curtain walls on top of each other. So it's not an ideal solution. There are a…
