how can you angle interior window jambs

[Anonymous]

This has to happened to someone prior to now, right? I have a 6 in deep window in a 24 in. thick wall. The masonry is angled so that the horizontal dimension at the window is 6 inches less than the opening in the wall. I have DWB 3.5 r 15, above the ArchiCAD window tool, and I can't figure out a solution. DWB allows an angled jamb, but only on the exterior side, which means the masonry sill on the exterior looks quite silly on the interior. The extra opening size on the interior side is critical for partition layout, and the exterior side, of course, is critical for elevations.

Any and all advice is welcomed.

Thanks.

I would to like to help you out since I use D&W builder too, but I'm unable to figure out what your trying to achieve from your description. Any chance of a sketch?

OK it's Tuesday and I've just got into work after a long weekend (Auckland Anniversay holiday) and mayby my brain hasn't got up to speed yet but I'm afraid your sketch hasn't made things clearer for me. You mention the masonry wall is sloped but I can't see this in the plan. Perhaps an elevation or a section would be clearer if you are still looking for a solution? Sorry for being so obtuse.

There's an object in AC9's standard library that will do what you want - you place it first and then your window within it.
