                             4.  Activate the Mullion tool and place mullions on the division between the two center
                                panels, as shown in Figure 12.41.


                        Figure 12.41
                        Mullions are
                        applied to the
                        segment added in
                        the center panels.













                             5.  Press the Esc key or click Modify. Select and delete the horizontal mullion between the
                                two left panels (this step is optional).
                             6.  Similar to the process of adding grid segments, select the horizontal curtain grid below
                                the narrow band and click the Add/Remove Segments button in the ribbon. Click the
                                segment in the left-center panel.
                                If you did not delete the mullion in step 5, a warning will appear prompting you to delete
                                the mullion segment. The result should look like the wall shown in Figure 12.42.

                        removed from
                        the left panel
                        to complete
                        the customized
                        design.
