0 SGSF 42 Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 Thanks Tom - Curious they not test that before publishing? Seems like a pretty fundamental operation. Quote Link to comment
0 Tom W. Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 You're doing the testing 🙂 You'd hope that something like this will be addressed pretty swiftly in SP1 1 Quote Link to comment

The missing lines of the window frame might actually be works as designed (yeah, I know 🤷🏼♂️). For the end of the windows, have you got Full Break with Caps set in the object info palette for the window? Edited October 5, 2022 by Christiaan Quote Link to comment
0 SGSF 42 Posted October 5, 2022 Author Share Posted October 5, 2022 Ah - Full break 'without' Caps - that's that part sorted - thank you Quote Link to comment
0 Tom W. Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I don't even know how to replicate this: The wall caps turned off in the window opening. Is this what you mean by 'jamb lines' @SGSF 42? Quote Link to comment

Is this what you mean by 'jamb lines' @SGSF 42? I can't either. It's the Wall's Pen attribute, but it should turn off when window is set to "Full break without caps". Might be bug to do with wall closures. Although I have a distant memory of this in the past also. Quote Link to comment

There are actually three levels of detail for Windows. The first image you show is Medium detail and the second is Low. High Detail shows a double line for glazing and the sill line beyond. Medium Detail shows as in your screenshot. Low Detail shows as a single line. That said, the Low detail graphics are obvious incorrect in your screenshot. This looks like a bug. Can you attach a file with that wall and window in it? Quote Link to comment
