Hi all!
Is there a way to create window frames that have gaps among them? Also, do you know how to create correct UV maps in Archicad as I depict in the picture?

Some windows have the oversize option. Some folks are using this parameter for stuff like this.
The correct UV maps can be specified in GDL. So the corresponding object needs to have this implemented.
For basic elements like walls etc. you can change the this with a menu command.
> Why can't Archicad add a sweep similar to 3ds max ?
Whatever this means. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hello riyadist,
I will achieve this with my own custom window. For this I model my window on a plan view with slabs then I save this slab selection as a window from the File menu. If the hole in the wall does not correspond to the footprint of the window, just add yet another slab and give it the ID "wallhole".
