Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:26:54 GMT

Hello
when I use ganging for any special windows it does not work and casing still appear
but when I use it with any sliding windows it works correctly.
is there any hidden option or just AC 22 bugs

thank you.

I have tried it on AC 21 and AC 22 and the problem appears only on some windows like Half Round Window 22,Trapezoid Window 22 andTriangle Window 22 which I really need them as a top of another window.
consequently, the ganging is essential.

Hi,

This is a known issue. It has been broken since before ARCHICAD 19, but rarely anyone uses special windows with ganging, so they have not been reported widely. I am not sure when they will be fixed (issue #180779).

Anyhow, I think you are better off if you just put together your windows with the ganging turned on, and the casings turned off, and then place the casing on it manually with a morph. You can also save custom windows if you nead really special shapes (model your window in the floor plan view, and use 'file>libraries and objects>save selection as...>window').

Regards,

Thank you Dkovacs,
Actually I only use special windows as a top part of another one.
Rarely, I use them .but when I do that I don't use them alone.
Best Regards
