I'm contacting with you because apparently if you don't have a maintenance contract, Abvent doesn't allow us to ask questions...
we have a couple of licenses at the office, archicad 22 included.
So the question concerns some serious challenge that we are facing at the office with a complex design.
I need to create some custom windows (curved dual sliding) and also some with 2 rails but 3 panels (sliding fixed sliding)
I sincerely hope that anyone in Graphisoft team can help with this one.
I leave you two images of the building itself .
Hope to hear from you soon,
Thanks in advance,
Bruno Ramos Ferraz

Even if you contacted your reseller, they probably would not help you with this...
Christophes suggestion of modifying the defaultCurved Window sounds like a good start, but like many of the other door and window objects, it is not a simple object and is rather complicated to modify. If you have the scripting knowledge, it might be easier to extract the WallLogic macro used in the Curved Window object then build your own window from that.

Thank you very much Christophe!
In fact this was the way how we have done it, but its not accurate for 1:50 detailing.
For starters it isn't a sliding window, so we can't use it otherwise we have a bad detail.
Thanks anyway.
All the best
Bruno

Thank you very much for your answer but actually I'am a designer and I don't see myself scripting to design. at least for now...
Thanks anyway.
Best regards

I talk about using this windows 2D script to generate your own GDL window
but you can use this windows about your model and add patch in 2D to generate a dynamic and right drawing

You had to create a selection zone before to be able to create a Patch (Rustine in French
)
