Hi, i'm a bit new to archicad, would it be possible to differentiate a frame of a caurtain wall or a window inside and outside? For example on the outside frame i would need black metal finishing, while on the inside frame just painted white.

 

thanks

Hi,

On a curtain wall you can override the frame body and the frame cap differently (of course, you need to select a frame type that is comprised of a frame AND cap). Select the curtain wall, go to its properties, frame and you have the options here:
