Wall Inset (for Windows)

The following is a description of the Wall Inset page of the Custom Settings panel for a Basic Window, from the INT Archicad Library.

Use this page to define a wall inset below the window (e.g. to make room for a radiator).

Choose a Wall Inset Size:

  • Automatic: The width of the inset is always equal to the window width.
  • Symmetric: Define a fixed width and a fixed height for the inset, which will be created symmetrically to the window opening.
  • Asymmetric: Define different overhangs (from right and from left) for the horizontal location of the inset. Define a single fixed height for the inset.

For all inset sizes:

  • Define the bottom elevation of the inset, or leave it 0 to extend it to the floor.
  • Define the depth of the inset.
