How do i create a custom window shutter?

[Anonymous]

Hello there,

in the standard library of AC windows comes with 7 different shutter styles...

Is there any way to add some more styles of my own?

for ex to draw my own with 2d tools and save it as custom windows shutter style


Thanks in advance

Welcome to the forum. You should add your Operating System and ArchiCAD version information in your signature for more accurate help. You can do this in your Profile (link at the top of this page).

Assuming you have v.12, you can get the building objects guide from here: http://www.graphisoft.com/products/archicad/training_guides/#essentials

No simple way.
Not checked, but I think doors and windows have some "CALL" function for a macro that holds the shutter types. Depending on how it is wrote, you can hopefully add more choices, or alter some of the existing ones.
Anyway, a good GDL practice is required.
