Adding Windows

Build the pane list from measured width, height, and quantity before choosing a material strategy.

Enter one row for each unique size

Enter the measured pane width, height, and quantity. When panes repeat at the same size, increase quantity instead of duplicating the row.

Use Groups for labels

Assign panes to Groups when rooms, elevations, phases, floors, or work areas need to appear in the window list and handoff output. Groups do not create separate optimization runs and do not increase row capacity.

Use Scopes for independent planning

Shop users should add another Scope when a part of the project needs its own windows, film, pricing, photos, cut plan, or production plan. The customer and overall project remain shared.

Window-row limits

  • Solo and Flex: 20 unique window rows per job.
  • Shop: 50 unique window rows per Scope.
  • Quantities: repeated panes on one row do not consume extra rows.

For oversized work, Shop users can divide the project into logical Scopes. Solo and Flex users should create separate jobs.

Check before planning

Confirm dimensions, quantity, orientation, and Group assignment. Changes to valid pane geometry or quantity make the prior physical plan stale and require a new optimized result.

Choose the right structure

Review the exact difference between organizational Groups and independent Shop Scopes.
