Place a window on two walls - it will only show on one.

Hi.

I need some help here. I have placed a window trough two walls, but the problem is as you can see on the picture. It will only show on one. What can I do to fix this? I tried "edit targets and operators" but it didn´t work.

Thankful for help.

I do not see the image but I think the solution is that you have to place an Empty Window into the other Wall.
Unfortunately ArchiCAD does not do this automatically, although it should, I think.

Yes.

A multistorey wall may be a possible solution also, (can't see the picture) as a single window placed in it can be made to display in 2d on any storey it crosses.

Can you see the pic now?

How do you make a multistory wall? Is it an option in the wall tool?

Nope, still can't see it! Try deleting the attachment, and reattaching it.

See this thread for an explanation of multistorey walls and windows - http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/viewtopic.php?p=140019

Hope it helps.
