The added controls for Shim Gaps for Windows (+ Doors) in VW2024 are great. Now you can edit the left/right/top/bot gaps independently:
What we need now is for the Jamb settings to get a similar treatment:
Being able to control the width + depth of the frame members independently whether they are the head, sill or jambs would be great. Similar controls already exist in WinDoor although here the jamb (side members) + head (top member) are treated the same whereas it would be better if they were separate:
Like with the Shim Gap controls, if you only ever want the values to be the same all the way around the frame you would just link the values so it wouldn't be any more complicated than it is now. But being able to unlink the values + edit them separately would give an extra degree of control + make it more likely we can achieve the Window configurations we need. For example, if I am placing a rectangular window in an arched opening I will generally want to widen the head but not the jambs or sill. Or I might want to widen the jambs + head to allow for internal wall insulation but not the sill.
