Give us cavity closure for empty openings!

There should be the "cavity closure" option for the empty opening, as there is for every other opening.

See attached image below.

I agree with you. And also it would be nice to have casing, board and sill for those openings.

Ok, I think it can be useful too, but in the meantime, why don't you use the window 'W rectangular opening'?

Hi Achille,
In the US version under specialty doors there is a framed empty door opening:

D Empty 12 [similar AC 11 & AC13]

similar for windows,

W Empty 12 [similar AC 11 & AC13]

Do you not have them in the international versions?

Let me know and I can email them if you like.

Yes, Erika, please do send me the objects if you can.

Thank you!

I agree with this wish. I find it quite awkward to have to split a wall and put in a high portion just so the composite skins will clean up properly.

Also - it would be great if the the jambs of the Empty Door could be angled in plan.
