Unfortunately, this is not an easy thing to do, as the lines are part of the 3D model (to be seen in elevation). The lines must be part of the 3D Script (they cannot be drawn), and there is no command that creates dashed lines, each line segment within the dashed line is a separate entity. The command to use is: Lin_ x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2 where the start point and end point are set. If you do not have much familiarity with GDL, this is not the place to start.

The window in your image looks simple, can you find this window in the ArchiCAD library and use its built in functions for displaying the opening lines? If you want to pursue the GDL route, then looking at library parts that have these lines and using that code as a starting point is a way to attack the problem.

Hope this helps.
