Creating Openings in #Archicad can be frustrating, unless you know a simple trick. With the USA doors and windows, using Create Opening From Selection to create an opening in a secondary wall that the window/door touched was easy. With the INT doors and windows, there’s one extra minor step required. Still easy. But if you don’t know to temporarily change the window reveal, you’ll be frustrated that Create Opening From Selection doesn’t work. Anyways, I explain all that and more in the video below. As a bonus I talk about a second technique to easily create openings in a section/elevation or, as in my example, an interior elevation).
