Ci Tools Doors & Windows: Snap sizes

Ci Tools' snap sizing feature prevents costly specification errors by automatically matching windows to real manufacturer dimensions.

Using snap sizes to ensure Windows match standard manufacturers’ sizes

The Ci Window Tool offers a selected range of Window manufacturers. Whilst the standard sizes can be entirely customized, snap sizes can also be set and updated based on market availability.

Furthermore, using snap sizes ensures quality assurance within the office – meaning, a user cannot draw a window that does not exist on the market. When resized, the window will simply snap to the nearest available size based on what has already been set in the snap sizes section of the Ci Window Tool settings.

The Ci Tools Doors & Windows are renowned to offer greater modeling flexibility than the default Archicad Doors and Windows. Comprised of only 4 tools; you can choose to either unleash your creativity or simply replicate suites as per manufacturers’ specifications.
