Double hung windows not displaying correctly in schedule

Is there a setting I'm missing, or is this a bug? Any work around?

Is it anything to do with the wall's direction?
Turn on the reference lines - is one going from left to right and the other right to left?
Just a hunch - I have not tested this.

The wall reference line is to the outside ot the structure.

I tried it in a clean OOB AC 18 residential template with the same result. There must be a bug in the window script.

I wasn't thinking of the position of the reference line but the direction the wall was drawn in.

If you place this and another widow (that you now schedules correctly) in the same wall and one still appears back to front then I would think it is a scripting problem.

direction has no effect. Notice the marker location for the DH units vs DH + picture unit?The settings are the same for each window, yet the markers show up on different sides of the wall. Something is messed up.

It looks to me that they are indeed scripted differently (if you are placing them in the wall in the same way as each other).
Are they standard Archicad windows or are they 3rd party objects?
