Hi guys! How to do a geodesic dome space frame with diamond shaped glass panel? The normal family creation only yields rectangular shaped glass panel.

Hmmm, not currently possible AFAIK in any automatic way as you cannot rotate grids associated to a curved plane. One method would be to create a surface in another program that creates the desired faces to the shape desired then import that in and use it as mass to associate curtain walls to. Or create a family for the diamond piece with a slope then radial array 180º it at the varying angles. HTH
