Can we create a custom skylight, kind to the custom window or door, so as to place it on a shell?

If you open for editing any of the Skylight objects in the default ARCHICAD Library, you will see how they are scripted.
Unfortunately, if you are not familiar with GDL Scripting, it will be quite difficult for you to do it, and would take lots of time to explain how to it.
In that case your best bet would be to hire a GDL expert to script it for you.

Thank you. I will try to find someone. But is really frustating, am I the only one doing a skylight without a rectangle ou square form? Is really stupid that graphisoft didn't think about that...
