    About Windows

    Windows are hosted components that you can add to any type of wall (or to an in-place roof, in the case of a skylight).

    Windows can be added in plan, section, elevation, or 3D views.

    You select the type of window to add, and then specify its location on the host element. Revit automatically cuts the opening and places the window.
