I've posted this a few times....no answers.
The client is looking to install a bi-folding window...yet I only find a "bi-folding door object".....where can I find a bi-folding window object in AC22's library?

thanks,

We are on a path to making this tool free: https://cadswift.com.au/products/Infinite-Openings.html
but require a couple more manufacturers to come on board.
Its a generic tool capable of any configuration in the window and door realm (not roller doors yet, but soon) and it has access to manufactures configurations via the internal catalogues of product data. Currently we have Assa Abloy Australia invested in the tool but we need a bit more investment to make the tool free.

let me know if you want to trial it for a few months.

Your "billing rate" is very high my friend....I'm billing 1/2 that per hour....and that's that I've had to PUSH clients into understanding my contribution to their jobs..............$90/hr?...yeah..in my wildest dreams I wish.

But at any event...I'll look into it to see of libraries that have a better variation of doors.

Well, most of my colleagues bill at least $150/hour, and I'm billing more than that. You need a better clientele. And a better self-image.

I can see this going off topic really fast.
You guys might want to Private Message each other to discuss billing rates.
