Custom Window

Hi,

Is there a way to make a window like the one in the attached picture?
Ive tried Variable Window, Variable Double Sash Window, Window with Sidelight, but there is no way to divide sidelight like in the attached picture.

Thanks!

If they are all the same, I would just model a custom window on the floor plan;

If a standard window does not do it you could create it with a curtain wall instead.

 

Or create your own custom window from slabs and save as a window object.

Or search in the window tool to see what is available in BIMComponents.

I found this.

I have not used it so can't say if it will do what you want or not, but it looks close.
