Cased Openings...why so difficult to find all the time??

Where the heck are those cased opening?
Why aren't they doors?
Why aren't they windows?.....why can't I find them so easily?

In other words....WHAT darn folder is that opening I saw that has casing around the perimeter? I can't seem to seach it? can't seem to remember if they are a window, a door, an object...or what?....where is that darn elusive cased opening?

In my Library, the Door called

Rectangular Door Opening 18

has Casing options for both the inside and outside.
Search for it in the Door Settings Dialog.

Now, make a favorite of it so you can find it again.

good point about the favorites.
I've always been, well, shall we say "hesitant" about "favorites"? Why you ask....it's like this...as the project is being developed...I know there will be 'certain' doors, windows, walls, etc...objects that you will use over and over but eventually, 'everything' becomes a favorite and (as Syndrome says)....."once every object is a favorite, then no object will be a favorite"......but I get your point.
Seems there are 'some' objects in the libraries that I have a hard time locating now and then if I haven't used them in a while.....guess I gotta use more archicad ;-D
