Hello everyone.
I need to skew door and window frame into non-ortoghonal wall.
Is there some simple setting I am overlooking? Thank you for any clues.

Hi there, look here (example in CHE/GER/AUT version);

Hi, thank you for your answer.
I tried, I am user of Archicad for 10+years

Problem is, that you set just one side (exterior, or interior), because you can't set up negative numbers to the other side of window casing.
Also, there is an issue with setting up an angle of casing. Same thing, just one side. 
I think custom profile should solve that, but when I move / rotate wall I need to modify all the profiles. Ufff

Any other solutions? 🙂

Ohhh I see. You have another casing option where you can edit both sides.
I just downloaded last update for my CZE version and I don't see this option.
That is shame. 

I will make up some workaround, again...

Thank you anyway Andreas for your fast response. Have a nice day
