Normally when creating mullion, the limitation we cant have 2 angle when rotating the mullion angle. Here are some simple steps to create a curve or angled mullion combined with regular grid
1. First create architecture wall (curtain wall) with some mullion grid ,
2. Selection the Curtain wall , duplicate it by copy to clipboard
3. Paste the same curtain wall ,'with Align to Same Place' , there will be
3. There will be some error message pop up, just ignore it , close out on it
4. Click on the isolate element 'sunglass icon at the very bottom'
5. Select every click on filter, select only the grid mullion and grid and delete, (we have the mullion on the 1st curtain wall)
6. Select the 2nd Curtain wall and click on edit type , Change the Curtain Panel = Empty System Panel: Empty. (to delete the glass , because the glass is already in the 1st Curtain Wall)
7. Now the glass is deleted , while it is still selected , go ahead and click Edit Profile
8. Edit your desire mullion angle or curve (it required to be in a close shape)
9. Dont worry if it white out, just move around to find the gridline , c
8. Click on mullion , and press on the angled grid to give mullion profile
9. Once completed , press on the sunglass to exit the temporary isolate
In usual case , revit don't automatically embed curtain wall if there are both overlapping
So when you draw a architectural wall overlapping with the existing curtain wall, error message will pop up, just ignore it
There you should get it properly cut out.

I will try to shed some light on the differences here:![Curtain wall systems Curtain wall systems](/uploads/1/2/3/7/123712997/132845637.jpg)
Most elements in Revit can be manually pinned by a user. This will lock an element in place to prevent itbeing moved, rotated or deleted.
Pinned elements can be unpinned to free them up to be moved, rotated ordeleted

then go to the elevation, select the 1st curtain wall and click on edit type , make sure it say automatically embed (with tick)There you should get it properly cut out.

Chain-Pin
Some Revit elements host other elements thatcan be locked / unlocked in place on the host – this also uses a ‘Pin’ iconwith a chain-link symbol beside it. The difference in icon to a normal pin is very subtle, and easily missed - but is really important to see and understand.
I like to call these ‘Chain-Pinned’ elements, because of the chain-link symbol - and we need some kind of phrase to differentiate them from regular pinning. They could also bedescribed as host ‘Type-Driven’ because some of their parameters are controlled bythe Type Properties of the parent.Examples of Chain-Pinned elements are:
oCurtain Wall Grids (only if spacing is set in curtain wall type)
oCurtain Wall Mullions (only if mullion type is set in curtain wall type)
oCurtain Wall Panels (only if panel type is set in curtain wall type)
Unpin
When a ‘Chain-Pinned’ element is selected it canbe unpinned by clicking on the element pin or the unpin symbol on the ribbon. This can be confusing because the pin symbol on the element displays its current status (pinned, with chain-link); while the icon on the ribbon is an action, showing what you can and might want to do to it (but no chain-link, because the command doubles up for both kinds of pin):
oThe element symbol will change tounpinned status, with the chain-link cleverly hidden behind the red cross - you have to look carefully!
oIt makes no difference to the behaviour whichpin icon is clicked on – element or ribbon (unlike regular user pins);the unpinned icon always shows up when theelement is selected.
Chain-Pinned Element Behaviour
When a Chain-Pinned element is selected (but has not been unpinned):
oSome of its properties may be locked (eg. Hand Clearanceon Handrail Supports)
oIt cannot be moved or otherwise manipulated
When a Chain-Pinned element is unpinned:
oSome locked instance properties are available tobe changed (eg. Hand Clearance on Handrail Supports)
oIts type is available to be changed to others ofthe same category
oIt can be moved (Curtain Wall Grids &Handrail Supports)
oIt can be deleted (Curtain Wall Mullions &Handrail Supports)
An unpinned Chain-Pinned element can bere-pinned:
oIts properties will revert to those dictated bythe parent (eg. Hand clearance on Handrail Supports)
Revit Remove Curtain Grid Line
oIts type will revert to that set in the parentfamily type.
oDeleted unpinned hosted elements cannot be directly replaced to theiroriginal position. This has to be achieved byalternative methods:
- Mullionscan be added to curtain grids;
- HandrailSupports can be reinstated by copying another one or by resetting the wholehandrail (Be very careful with this - all other modifications will be lost too!)

Editing Chain-PinnedElements
The only Chain-Pinned elements that can beedited after unpinning are curtain panels – using the ‘Edit In-Place’functionality, which allows you to change the outline of the curtain panel using sketch tools.
I hope this sheds some light on a confusing Revit topic. Go forth and unchain those pinned hosted elements. Or don't, as the case may be - sometimes it is important for them to remain chain-pinned so that global changes can be quickly made. Sonic 3d model download. Once unpinned, you lose that capability.
