I have a section of storefront that has a clearstory above a low sloped roof. i want to angle the bottom of the curtain wall to align with the roof I just can't figure out how to do it. I can attach top/base but can't attatch base/top? I have attached an image. the red line is what needs to be angled, the green line is the angle I need to match. I am using 2011. Thanks in advance.

Curtain walls can be sketch altered just like normal walls.  Pick the curtain wall and choose edit profile.

Thanks! I feel dumb now, that seems so simple.

This is what we call a head slap.  We all have them.

What is interesting is you can even sketch a hole in the CW.... Like a round hole and the mullions will wrap around the round opening.  Then if you really want that to be glass - just sketch another round CW in the hole without mullions.  Not saying you would ever build a CW like that ... but maybe a wood window.... ????  experiment!
