AC24 Corner Window Library Missing ?

mthd — Wed, 24 May 2023 07:45:50 GMT

Hi, I am using AC24.

I can use my corner window tool but I can only create an empty opening for a corner window at present. I looked at the dialogue box and it shows a red folder saying, missing corner windows.

I re-loaded the AC24 library and still no corner window, only a empty opening symbol.

I wonder if I have to install earlier versions of Archicad to get those corner windows to load ?

I do have AC23 installed, do I have to install AC22 and lower to get them to load ?

Or do I have to download them from somewhere else ?

But you have all the other standard windows?

Make sure you browse to the main library where all the other windows are.

Yes, I did browse to my other windows in AC24 and they are there.

I am installing AC20,21 &22 at present. That I haven’t done before.

I got a red folder before saying corner windows are missing.

I will take a screen shot to show you the red folder.

Thank you Barry for your help.

The corner window tool should just use the regular windows, but with the corner window tool, I believe that both sides of the corner have to be the same window configuration (maybe not the same width).

It will only show as a regular window in the settings, you will not see the corner configuration.

However you can just use a standard window and turn on the custom corner and then move it to the corner of the walls.

This way you can configure each window differently.

i.e. fixed on one wall and sliding or awning on the other wall.

You will have much better control with separate windows, especially if you want them to be different.

Yes, I did browse to my other windows in AC24 and they are certainly there.

I got a pink folder saying corner windows missing error loading. (That confused me)

I don’t think the title “expert” applies to me just yet but it certainly does for you and many others here.

Thank you for help Barry much appreciated.

You are a Champion.
