Hi there,

Is there a simple way of setting windows so that they are recognisable as say, a 1200x1200mm window unit, sitting in a 1210x1210 structural opening? I can size the windows correctly, but then all my setting out drawings are wrong and vica versa, as it won't let me add real world tolerances. I had hoped that the "rough width" etc parameters were referring to structural sizes, but when "rough width" is changed, "width" is changed.

 Any advice appreciated.

seems that some windows do recognize diff. between r.o. and unit size & some don't. I'm sure it's in the way they were created.  I just found a different window that responded in the way I needed them to.
