Windows - Wall closure - Side Jambs and Head Jamb not identical.

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello there!

I am trying to set up some windows and doors with specific parameters. For example I want to turn in and cover the jambs with insulation, but anything I do with options (reveal, wall closure, etc.) the setting does not apply fully to the head jamb. See the pictures.

Any clues?

Object limitation. Details like these are not modelled by the object in 3D and hence cannot be seen in the section. There might be a 3rd party object that does, but as far as I know, none of the GS objects do.

Ou... that is... disappointing. Thank you anyway.
Do you think that this problem is... eligible to ad to the wish list? I would like to see this corrected.
By the way, what experiences do you have guys with the wishes/wish list? Does they get resolved? Do the developers read that forum posts?

Pretty sure there is a long time wish for this somewhere...

Quite a number of wishes appear to get forwarded to the dev team, but from what I have used and voted on, additions related to said wishes are far and few between from what I have noticed.
