The trick to get the hole to match the frame is to add a slab that is the overall shape of the window and give it an ID of WALLHOLE.

Then when you save it all as a window object, it will automatically create the correct shaped wall hole from that slab.

The first one with no image seems to be in English (2 & 3 are German I believe).

The 4th one, I got an error message when trying to download.

 

Just select and then press Download button.

It will be added to your Embedded Library.

 

As I said, I have not used this object but is is all stretchy in elevation and even a preview in plan by the looks.

There seem to be some description in the plan preview for what to do.

 

There will be a video by the creator @Hmooslechner somewhere in a post here.

 

I think this is the post with a link to a YouTube video.

No it was 5.36pm here.

In your profile settings there is an option to set the time zone.

 

My Settings > Preferences > General.
