Door Rough Openings and the Interactive Schedule

[Anonymous]

Looking at door parameters under "Oversize" we've noticed that there is an option for adding oversize dimensions to any side of the door, the same is true with windows. I'm assuming this refers to the extra R.O. dimensions needed to properly install a window or door. Working with the interactive schedule I've been able to bring this information into our working schedule, but it still is confusing to our framers (see screenshot). What I want to know, is there any way to have the interactive schedule add this oversize information to the actual window and door heights on the schedule only while keeping the true window and door heights in the model? We tried using the R.O. sizes for the window and door sizes in the model, but the visual effects were lacking, in other words things just didn't look right. Any help we can get would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This doesn't have to be through the interactive schedule, its just that I find the IS the easiest to use.

Just what are the parameters that you are entering when you enter the width and height of a unit?

From the diagram it seems as though it is the size of the window sash or door panel.

This makes creating a interactive schedule difficult because most manufactures don't give sash size information for standard sizes in their catalogue tables and the people building the thing want the rough openings anyway.


Is there away to enter the R.O. in the window setting box and have the archicad adjust the window sizes in the model so that they are accurate.

I guess that was the original question
