Dimensions

When the Dimensions command is selected in the Parametric Frame Builder Action list box, the settings group for that command displays directly to the right of the Action list box.

The Dimensions command manages settings to define the size of the opening in a wall or partition. The size of the actual frame is determined by the opening dimensions and the thickness settings for interior and exterior wall, horizontal and vertical recess, and horizontal and vertical tolerance.
