thanks so, now the wall works, but the windows still don't work for some reason. In the screenshot there is an error in Report view: "H1, H2, W1 and W2 parameters cannot be zero. Aborting." In your video we can see that they indeed are zero in the Window options dialog when you are creati...

I tested it and it seems to fix this issue. Thanks!

PR to fix the beam length issue: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/13399 The PR also improves the accuracy of the length of a beam created by picking both points in the 3D view. If I use Category Eurocode timber and Preset 100x100 and create a beam from 0,0,0 to 0,0,2000 using keyboard input ...

I should remember to test by specifying a non-existent configuration file with -u option.

It seems that this happens only when Use sketches option is disabled. I updated the steps to cover that.

Toggle Preferences / Arch / Defaults / Use sketches option off Ensure current working plane is "Top" Create draft point at 0, 1000mm, 0 Open Working plane setup dialog Select the created point and click "Move working plane" Use Arch_Wall to create a wall from 0, 1000mm, 0 (in lo...

This sounds exactly like what I'm looking for except that (again in my limited understanding), variant links are limited to only choosing pre-existing data combinations that exist within the original part definition. Your understanding is not correct, which is not surprising as this stuff is very p...

Can't confirm this one. Do you have the same issue when creating a Draft_Line? No, I don't have the same issue with Draft_Line. I'm using Category Eurocode timber and Preset 100x100. Default length appears to be 100mm. Now that I tried to reproduce the problem again, the beam was always 100mm long,...

Arch_Structure documentation says: "In beam mode, you are asked to pick two points on screen or by entering coordinates. The new structural object will span between these two points." This is not what happens if my working plane is x-y and the points I give are, for example, 0,0,0 and 0,0...

I can confirm the issue. It is a strange one as, in a way, the program is doing what you tell it to do ("don't rotate the object, rotate its base instead"). But the result is confusing. This is partly due to how beams are implemented. They are created as vertical extrusions (columns) whic...
