Have you tried the modular joinery object by Ralph Wessel? It can do that - and a lot more.

You could try the basic window 'W2 15', with the 'transom division' option ticked. This will give you four panes, and each can be individually adjusted as to how they open in the 'Opening' tab.

You should post a picture showing what you need if this isn't correct.

What you suggest make it easy.

Now I can even create 3 panel and more.

Thanks a lot.

There is a 'W2 14' window in AC14, but it can't do the window as shown. To be honest, I'm having difficulty getting any of the standard windows in AC14 to form the required arrangement of panes!

In AC15, the windows seem to be reduced in number, but have much more flexibility built in to form different variations. I'd say they were a big improvement over those supplied with AC14 and before.

Thanks Peter. It's good to know the window (and I presume door) objects are heading in the right direction.
