Double glazing in Archicad 22?

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:27:20 GMT

Hi all,

I'll just get to the point: is there any way to make windows and doors with double glazing?
I searched this online and saw that up until a certain version of Archicad (18 or 19 I think) this could be done easily from the Window/Door Selection Settings.
Is there any way to do this in Archicad 22?

Thanks.

Hi,

I looked at ARCHICAD 19 Window Settings in the INTernational version, and it looks just about the same as in ARCHICAD 22.

Maybe you use a different language version, and that specific library part has been replaced in the new version?
Could you post a picture of this setting from the earlier version?
Was it just a field where you could define the number of glazing as a text, or did it actually show in 3D?

Thanks,

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your reply.
This is the setting I was talking about:

I'm only realizing now that this is actually in reference to Cadimage Windows, which of course I don't have... sorry about that.
I guess there is no way of having double glazing in Archicad without Cadimage tools then?

Hi,

Well, not in the 3D model, but if you add a Property to Windows/Doors to select the number of Glass Panels, then you can Schedule/use that information later. I am not sure what you need it for though.

Anyhow, I added this to our wishlist.

Regards,

Hi,

Unfortunately I do need it in the 3D model, but thanks for the tip and for your help!
