Add curve to Curtain wall

The current Curtain Wall tool in OBD10 doesn't allow you to create a Curtain wall that contains a curve or a complex shape.


With the new style buildings that are being designed, there are very few buildings that do not have some sort of curved roof. this means that if we wanted a Curtain wall to meet the roof, we have to facet the curve, which then creates GAPS.

The Curtain wall tool, needs to support Curves and B-Spline Curves.

    Thank you for your idea and the nice video attached. We noticed that we already have a backlog item for this request in our database. We will wait for further user feedback and votes and consider this in the future.
