Hello,

I want to realize a jamp on the external surface of my wall (see pic). The idea is to carve the insulation layer.

Is there anyone that know how I can realize this?

One of the solution that I found was to separate the elements around the window, but this is too complicated. I obtained too much elements and there is too much different jamps of my facade

Ok I found a solution. The reveal is made by an empty window smaller than the good one.

There is two remaining "problems" :
1) the internal part of the reveal must be anthracite

2) How can I lenght the tablet along the whole reveal?

Thx

Hi. I'm having the same problems and got to the same conclusions. It's a shame AC's windows can't do the outward reveal! If someone figures this out, I'd be deeply appreciative.

You are basically stuck modeling this with walls/morphs/shells whatever works for you. You could save it all as a custom window.

The inside part of the reveal can be made another colour using the "empty opening"'s "chambranle intérieur" and "tablette" in the french library.

I'm not familiar with saved custom windows. Wouldn't this forbid any later changes? Would it become necessary to re-save the custom window each time I'd want to change it?
