rough opening

I have a window in concrete. 

The rough opening is .5" extra on all sides. 

How can I make it so that the window is, say, 3' wide but the opening in the concrete is 3 ' 1"? 

Right now I just indicate that the rough opening requires the extra .5"

Make the window opening in the family slightly bigger (e.g. the size of the RO).

How to make the Window Opening bigger?  Just edit its Sketch Boundary in the Family.

Try editing the Opening Cut (hide all the frame, glass and other elements in view except the host wall and the Opening cut, then tap your Tab key until you select the Opening cut element, then click Edit Sketch):

Once you are in the Edit Sketch mode, align-and-lock your opening's boundaries to reference planes which have constraints set to the Rough Width and Rough Height parameters. You may need to create these reference planes if they are not already present.

Do you want to make the actual opening larger or do you just need to report the ROs in the schedule?

I thought the same thing until I read "Concrete".

What was the solution, @jfjacques ?   Did you resize the Opening per my instructions or do something else?

I modified the open cut for those windows in the concrete.

Is there any way to have a window have a different R.O. size that I can show and hide in different views?

For example. I want my "final" elevations etc. to show the window only i.e. hide the extra "border" of the R.O. around the window.

But for my shop drawings I want to show the R.O. as well as the window so the team knows what they're framing out. Is this possible?

Yes.  You can use symbolic lines to present rough opening on elevation and plan.  Constrain them to rough opening parameters, set them to only show for a certain detail level (coarse or medium or fine), and/or and assign them to a subcategory that you can turn it off via VG in the project.

thanks

 

Is there somewhere that explains how to do this? I don't see any "symbolic" lines option in my window families settings.
