Windows and glass position

Anonymous
Not applicable
I want to put in windows that have the glass located 1" from the frame instead of centered in the frame. Is there a window object in Archicad that can do this or do I have to create a new object?

Thanks for any help,
MIchele

Have you tried the "W Curtain Wall Straight" window object? I think it allows you to set the glass panel setback. I must admit that I don't use the standard AC default doors and windows.

Storefront Window has this parameter, Glass setback. But Unfortunately, it's not a hotspot.
