If you use WinDoor...

 

Otherwise I think you need to use a Window + Door abutting each other.

Thanks for the reply. Isn't the window + door a Door Schedule nightmare?

 

I don't have Windoor. Is it available in the US?

If they are a single combined piece of joinery I guess yes. But when I have done it they have literally (in reality) been a door + window fitted next to each other so it wasn't a problem.

Yes. Since VW2022. You need to install it. Go to Help menu then Install Partner Products + you will find it there. But I have no idea how combining VW Doors + WinDoor doors in the same file affects scheduling either...

I too stopped worrying about this because I was finding that the window manufacturer's we generally deal with create the windows in this way.

True... the vendor usually sends fabrication shop drawings for approval. It's just that I don't want to fight the CG over those extra LF of wallbase he might claim.
