Ridge_Runner Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I created a box window from the window box icon in a plan in X7. I rarely use the box or bay window icon as I have found them to more trouble than doing them manually. Thought I would try it one more time for this project. Deleted the two side windows leaving the one on the front. This plan has already gone to the lumber yard for quotes. Fortunately the lumber yard caught an error in the box window size in the schedule. It appears to be reporting the approx. size of the entire box and not the window. Is this a bug in the software as the numbers for height and width in the schedule are too large and obviously in error for the actual window? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to work correctly for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Go to the label tab of the Bay/Box Window Specification dialog. Depending on whether you have checked "Show Component Labels" or "Show Single Label for Entire Unit" you will get different entries in the window schedule.

Ridge_Runner Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Thanks, Dermot - that was it. When I changed it to "Show Component Labels" it shows correctly in the schedule. I don't believe I ever changed that setting before. Is "Show Single Label for Entire Unit" the OOB default? Thanks again, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
