Hello @arsensargsyan2040,

In France, architectural agencies use level plans for a maximum 1/50 display. At 1/50 this type of joinery frame is not visible. In addition, the Archicad detail function aims to complete the plans with more precise graphic indications at 1/25, 1/20, 1/10, etc. . Modeling the profile of the joinery as you suggest would cause a monstrous increase in the number of polygons in the 3D model to the point of making it heavy and slow to modify. Since it is not wise to model this profile, it is then sufficient to draw it exclusively in 2D for the needs of technical details. The detail function is made for this.

I see, I also use the detail tool. I just wanted to have less manually drawings, and to have it in auto update mode, and I'm sure in the future there will be other mechanisms in the Archicad, that will allow us to have it without any extra load on our processors (sometimes builders use pdf drawings, and they can zoom in and see all the necessary details, so the scale of the drawing isn't so important). Thank you for your reply.
