Zones. Wall Recesse problem

Anonymous
Not applicable
"Add wall Recesses to Zones" is not working properly then using "Custom corner" for windows.
We can see two rectangles in the corner, plus the column in the window area is not subtracted from zone.
The same in AC22 and AC23
Any suggestions?

Hello,

You probably need to be interested in the parameters of the zones
Option / Project Preferences / Zones

Did you check that?

What do You mean "need to be interested" ?
Maybe Graphisoft should check this nonsense?

Are there any ideas how to solve this problem?
If I use "corner window", everything is OK, but window with custom corner is causing this problem.

I mean "you have to check". It is just a quite wrong translation.
I do not use this kind of zone parameters because I prefer always using measured area.


Have you tried to check if this is a calculated area bug or simply a graphical representation bug?
