Window orientation wrong in hotlinks

Archicad displays window orientation wrong in hotlinks, even if they are not mirrored or rotated. 

 

The first screenshot correctly shows the label with "orientation" autotext, while the hotlink completely misinterprets that information even when the window orientation is set to CUSTOM. This seems like a massive bug, with potentially catastrophic effects with larger projects. I haven't noticed the same error in previous versions so I might be just this

 

Operating system used: Windows 11

After further examination, the problem only happens with "Variable Window 27" library part. Seems solvable, but would still appreciate any help or guidance with this issue.

Hi, same issue here in archicad 28, but with the single leaf door. Despite both the original and the pasted module opens the same way, when i do the door scheme archicad seems to change their orientation. But in the floor plan and 3D they open the same way an orientation.
