I would say no, there is no easy way to draw curtains walls in CA.  That said I think you could come up with some work arounds to make something work but it would likely take a considerable amount of manual work and effort.

Are you refereeing to a canvas or similar material- that may be see through?

Maybe used to enclose a covered patio type area?

Buy yourself an architectural or construction dictionary and look up "Curtain Wall" Your depth of knowledge is very shallow

Hi @raltd9245, looks like that there are only a few Architects using CA ? In residential buildings, a curtain wall is quite rare.

 

We can mull window components side by side but I haven’t tried mulling them vertically yet. Somebody here might a have a work around for it. I might see if I can test it in CA to see if it will work ?

 

We also call them shop front windows in our region.

 

I am not an Architect but an Architectural Technologist because I only do low rise residential buildings and light commercial.

 

Have a look at this thread as it might help you in the process.

My apologies if I didn't understand the OP request -

I have designed bult several small commercial projects that have utilized canvas wall systems to enclose cover patio seating.

 

And as for my knowledge of construction being "shallow"..........

After 30+ years in the industry I know enough to realize that I will never know it all - and a can learn something new every day if I am willing to keep my eyes and mid open. ;)
