Free form Window

Does anyone know of a version of this object which is compatible with ArchiCAD 11? .. Or how to correct this coding error:
"NEXT without FOR at line 19 in the 2D script of file FreeFormWindow.gsm"
The object is from the depository.
Thanks for your time!!

Chrissy,
I have Free form Window and have used it several times in AC 10
and I do not get any errors. According to the author this
object was saved in AC 8 and should work in AC 8, 9, 10, and 11.
Is this the first time you have tried to use this object ?
Do you get this error in the preview window before you
insert an instance in a wall or do you get the error after
you have edited it's parameters either in the settings dialog
or in the 3D or Section/Elevation window ?
Have you tried drawing a wall in a new AC project, inserting
an instance of the object without editing any parameters
and see if you get the error ?

I am asking these questions because the type of error you are getting
is a GDL syntax type error and should have nothing to do with the
AC version you are using and therefor, as sometimes happens,
the error is in error and something else is wrong often having to do
with parameter settings.

Hello Peter.

I tried some of the steps you suggested.. And the object is fine - I think the error was occurring because of some loading issue or bad file structure in the project. I have since corrected the problem - so great news for me as now I can use the Object again!!

Thank you for taking an interest in my problem - and all your assistance!
