Corner Windows

[VincentCuclair]

Is it true a window loses its Sash configuration if you activate the corner window function!?

It always does for me.

That's embarrassing! (BIM software?!) I've been using WinDoor until now so I didn't know how dire the situation was! How do you all do corner windows without WinDoor? You can on the other hand add a transom?!

What I'd like to think is that somebody sits on a board meeting and says this is unacceptable. But I don't think that happens.

I realise now that we didn't cover this on needle and mortar unfortunately:

In fact there may be a whole bunch of things we've missed about the window tool because we hardly use it.

Added to supplementary list for v2014:

I had intended to solely use the native tool in the future so I guess there is more of this to come...... my present solution was to create a corner window set to opening and add a second window in the same place with the correct configuration + a corner post ie 5 objects instead of 2 to solve this, ie 5 objects to edit instead of 2 in the event of a change.....Don't know what I'll do if I need a glazed corner solution?

You should Wish List what you need Vincent.

[VincentCuclair]

Oh I will, but I need to work with them for a while to see what is needed......I'm still only fiddling with the evaluation version and purchasing when SP2 comes out. (So i'm still doing my projects in 2012 with WinDoor)

Or do I misunderstand the problem?

That's WinDoor, the problem is with the native window tool.......

Hi Rob,

As of 2014, no change...however we are working towards a much more complete and flexible window PIO.

At the moment, I use the Corner Window function and then apply muntins as required.

well, it's not the way it's supposed to be solved at all.

is there any schedule for improvement completion?
