Hello,

Please see attached.  My window model components are in the appropriate positions in reference to the wall faces in it's file. However, when inserted into the building model, components are displaying incorrect.  My question is 2-fold; you'll see my latches that are on the exterior wall face are offset from the building & the concrete lintel (drawn as an extrusion) is appearing too far into the interior face of the building on my floor plan.  Any guidance is greatly appreciated!  Thanks.

The view you show does not show us enough.  A plan, elevation and section may help.

The components you say are correct in the file (assume you mean family) may be locating off the wrong reference.  This has to be set up correctly in the family.
