Creating a Profile for Door and Window Assembly Mullions
Use this procedure to create a profile that you can use to define the shape of a door/window assembly mullion definition.
You can then extrude the profile to create mullions from it.
The height and the width of the polyline you use to create the profile define the default height and width of the
door/window assembly mullion. The insertion point of the profile is aligned with the centroid of the mullion.
1
Draw a closed polyline of the height and the depth needed for the resulting door/window assembly mullion.
2
Select the polyline, right-click, and click Convert to
➤
Profile Definition.
3
Enter c (Centroid) for the insertion point of the profile.
The insertion point of the profile is aligned with the centroid of the mullion.
4
Enter a name for the profile, and click OK.
