How to get the depth of a groove in a curtain wall?

I am studying cw window 26.
The left side is cw window 26.
I am not understanding how to get the groove depth value.
Which part should I study?

 

ADD2 0,0.1
POLY2 4,7,
 0,-FrameThk/2,
 A,-FrameThk/2,
 A,FrameThk/2,
 0,FrameThk/2
 

1.  It seems to me that this A has an ac_clampdepth value.
    There is an ac_clampdepth value in frames, but it's hard to understand how to get that value in windows because it's so complicated.

    I want to know how to get ac_clampdepth value.

 

2. It's too complicated, so I just set the center of the window to ADD2 A/2,0 in the 2D script, but is there any problem doing this?

 

ADD2 0,0.1
add2 A / 2, 0
HA = windowWidth /2

POLY2 4,7,
   -HA,-FrameThk/2,
    HA,-FrameThk/2,
    HA, FrameThk/2,
   -HA, FrameThk/2

I found this.
I couldn't find the variable in CW window 26 when I searched for it in ui_CWWindow_m.

I want to know the variable values of these pens.

 

 

The clues I've found are here.

_idxTab = 300

iUiID_FloorPlanSection = _idxTab
iParID_FloorPlanSection = iUiID_Root : _idxTab = _idxTab + 1

Hi,

 

Generally these names are the same as the parameter's description. You can search for it in the GDL editor parameter list, or browse them in Schedules / Scheme settings / Fields / Add Fields / Library Part Parameters:

https://gdl.graphisoft.com/gdl_other_docs/how-to-make-a-curtain-wall-panel discusses clamp sizes and panel coordinates.

Parameter A depends on ac_aSizeIsWithClamp, you need to set it to use the simplification.
