Window reveal - Place window on specific place

Hi all! just starting to mess with Archicad.

My question is regarding placing a window:

I have a stone house which existing walls are 50cm and made of granite. I am trying to draw the existing situation, but having troubles placing the window on the narrower part of reveal. I messed around with settings, but cant seem to move the window to the right place. 

I managed to design the reveal correctly, but missing pushing the window to the outter end of it.

 

Please see attached images.

Thanks

Check your Reveal Type. There is a seperate one for your outcome.

Hi Ling. Thank you for your answer.

 

I think you misunderstood because I didnt explain all the detais. On the right side of the 2nd picture is the exterior, not the interior. My reveal is correct, i just cant after that place the window on the position it is at the moment. Its a simple granite existing wall and the windows are located on the reveal and not behind the reveal.

 

Thanks,

Rui

If you need it the opposite way around, with the narrow section outside, you could use the last option?
