Is there a way to rotate a single horizontal mullion in elevation?  So if the vertical mullions are vertical but the horizontal mullions are not horizontal but forming something of a zigzag pattern?  Racking my brain . . .

Basically a pattern in elevation that looks something like Charlie Brown's t-shirt.  Just imagine vertical mullions at the peaks and/or valleys.

Not quite but that's further than I've gotten.  Like that but without the breaks in the glass above and below.  Vertical mullions above and below.  So how did you do that?  I can figure out angle in one direction but how did you angle in both directions?  And then above and below, are those different types of mullions or did you erase mullions?

Yes just use the angle parameters for vertical & horizontal grids and adjust as necessary.  I set mine to 60 & 30°.  Then use add/remove individual grid segments to get rid of the lines where they are not needed.  Unfortunately it will want to break it up occassionally still...

I know this thread hasn't been commented on in a while. Is there a way to create what Mr. Spot did (mullions with two angles) in addition to verticle mullions. Once you adjust the verticle and horizontal angles can you still add more mullions that are orthographic?
