Custom window being placed outside the wallhole

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:34:00 GMT

Hi there,

I have created a custom window (including the correct wallhole slab command) and yet when I go to place said window, it appears offset from the wall hole by approx 1300mm. I have recreated the window many times and searched for what I could be doing wrong yet cannot find the solution.

I'm still a beginner and have scrolled many forums trying to find the answer to this issue and it's driving me crazy!

I have attached a couple of screenshots to better explain my issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Hello,

Could you post the object or the code?

Hello Jay,
I have run into what might be the issue here.
You must model your custom window exactly
centered on the project origin AND on the zero story/first story
of the project. If not, the window will be displaced
inside or outside of the parent wall.by the story to story
distance (plus or minus).
