When creating a custom circlular window and using it in my model I have discovered the object defines a square as the rough opening for the circular window and places the window within the square leaving the wall between the window edge and the square rough opening empty (see through). How do I get the rough opening to follow the curvature of the window?

On this list, refer to http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=211
The basic procedures for creating objects, doors and windows without any GDL knowledge is described in Object Making With ArchiCAD book, by David Nicholson Cole, that should be available with your reseller, or on the Web.
If the above does not help, yell!

Does it matter where in the 3d Script I place the Command Wallhole?
