I want to make Casement Window with 4 sashes. But there is no option to increase the number of sash frame in Casement/Metal Windows. Is there any way to make this?

Is "ganging" an option? I don't know your predicament, as I use Door & Window Builder, this would be v. easy.

not after the muntin stew . . . !

... use a timber window and change the material (W Ribbon 10) . . . much easier.

You may use w2 casement window double to get 4 sash window.
For the right 2D represantaion , you have to use "stacked window" parameter

You can also use the ribbon window and pretend they are operable.

Thank you everybody.
Excuse me for this late reply. I've forgotten this job.
I mean gergazi's explanation. I did it by WRibbon10 but its not the correct choice. Because it is a fixed window.( there is no leaf to open)

I did it by gergazi's way. I think Graphisoft should add more options to make the windows

this is the other problem i've got.
i have to make this kind of window. i did it in a strange way.
At the first i made the window P3-390/130 by the method of Gergazi.
Then,for the leftside window i made an "empty opening" along the wall then i placed the window. It's ok in 3d presentation but in 2d i am not able to have perfect view.At the first "empty opening" is shown on the Casement Window. When i change some properties of Casement Window then it's view comes to front.And the view always changing some reasons.
The second and the main problem is caused by " Window Marker".
I posted a message about this problem.
When i want to save the project as a dwg file, archicad gives an error and it doesn't save as a dwg. When i remove all window markers it saves. I found the reason but i could't solve the problem.
When i placed the "empty opening" i removed it's markers. Then i placed the Casement Window (P7) with it's marker. this is the reason i've found.
Is it a bug ?or this is a big mistake to make this kind of window?
