    Showing Window Swing in Elevation View?

    Have a question regarding how you show window swing direction in elevation view, with for example, casement windows?

    In the Chief manual p261, windows such as casements, and awnings are shown with their respective swing directions. Have searched the manual and program and cannot find a setting in which to show this important attribute in elevation view.

    Do you have to manually edit each window in layout with the edit tool? This is a very time-consuming task if there is no other way.
    Thanks for the help with this question.

    Regards,

    Dave,

    while viewing the cross section click the show items icon.

    at the end of the list near terrain is a checkbox for open indicator

    Dean,
    Thank you for your help with this question. Saved a lot of time.
    Maybe in the next release, Chief will put this command within the window dbx, where it would be easier to select.
