Custom window style help please

[crullier]

Can someone please help me make the following window stylein ADT 2005? I cant seem to find any help anywhere else.....

In plan view draw the linework that represents this window,
then use the Convert Lines to Window Style tool,
switch to a front view to see your newly created window style,
right-click to edit/modify and save your new style.

Based on your attached graphic you will need to assign
the proper end-cap styles to present the sill as indicated.

You could probably also do this with the Convert Layout Grid To
Window assembly, only I think the linework method will be best
suited to this particular style.

where is that tool found?

[mjfarrell]

On the Design Menu>Window Assemblies>Convert Linework to Window Assembly

The Key-in would be: _AecWinAssemblyConvert

That tool?

nope, i dont think so, It just a custom window that I want to make... is there a tutorial somewhere?

Is it the whole window you want to make or just the sill part? If its just the sill part you could create that as a multi view block and attach it to the window.

See attached drawing. It looks like this is not just a double-hung window, but a basic picture with a single muntin. I added a muntin, and then added a custom block to the Model display representation using a mass element for the 3D sill...and used the 2D Sill representation for the plan display of the sill.
