I'm recreating a floorplan and I'm utilizing the 3D capabilities of Architecture 2008 that is basically packaged in with my MEP '08. I'm wanting to make an Exterior Wall Style, and under Design Rules I have selected Rectangular as the predefined shape, but I don't know what to choose for Window Type. I'm not sure of the names they have available. Need some help... Basically the windows will be the entire height of the floor, and it's a multi-story building. Thanks in advance.... 8)

Will you be using the elevational tool to create elevations from your model?
Is the window set between the floor plates within the building envelope, or are you using a curtain wall system that spans over several floors?
If you are merely using the floor plans to convey information then choose the rectangular window style and set the sill and head height in the properties.
