Modifiable parameters

Different frame widths

You can set different frame widths and frame depths at the top and bottom and on the left and right. This applies not only to the outer frame but also to the frame of the casement. This property can be useful if you need to display doubling-up in the floor area.

Rabbet ledge for overlap casement

When you create an overlap casement, it is now possible to display the joint, which is usually covered by a rabbet ledge in practice. You can define the position, width and depth of the rabbet ledge as you need.

Fixed field width

You can now create a centered field of a fixed width. You can enter any value for the width. The remaining area is automatically distributed evenly over the two outer fields.

Different formats for casements

You can specify a different format for each opening symbol in the 2D and 3D representation. Take a double-casement window, for example: the formats selected for the two casements can differ.

Different materials for each element

The individual elements of an object can be given different surfaces and colors. For example, you can now display wooden windows with brass-colored muntins or doors with dark gray frames and light gray leaves.

Thickness of field elements

The thickness parameter is now also available for field elements. You can specify a different value for each field. Consequently, muntins on the inside and sandwich panels can be displayed easily.

Controlling visibility

You can now control the visibility of objects on an individual basis. By assigning different layers to the elements, you can show and hide elements and opening symbols independently of one another. The same applies to the representation in 2D and 3D.

Offset to opening

The offset to the opening can be defined directly in the parameters of the new objects. You can set different values for the offset at the top and bottom and on the left and right. For example, you can also use this parameter to define the offset to the unfinished floor.

Rabbet

Using the new rabbet parameter, you can define the manner in which the frame and casement are to overlap. You can choose from four different types; the position at the top and bottom and on the left and right can be set separately.

Window handles

You can choose to display window handles on the hinge side and on the frame side. They are automatically placed so that they are centered on the casement. Handles are displayed in both 2D and 3D.

Window sill

You can now assign window sills to the inside and/or outside of a window object straight at creation time. You can define the parameters as you need. The width of the window sill can be modified by means of handles.

Roller shutters

You can assign front-mounted or top-mounted roller shutters to a window object straight at creation time. You can define the parameters as you need. The width of the roller shutters can be modified by means of handles.

Door handles

The door handle and door knob elements are now also available. You can choose to display these elements on the hinge side and on the frame side. They are automatically placed at a height of 1.05 m on the casement. Door handles are displayed in both 2D and 3D.

Frame position

The position of a block frame within an opening can be set on an individual basis. For the orientation you can choose between centered or flush with the outside/inside. You can also specify an additional offset to the axis. For example, a frame door with a leaf that is offset towards the inside can be created in this manner.

All-glass doors

Frameless doors made of glass can be created quickly and easily. You can use the reveal to define the exact position of the door within the opening.
