      Hi everybody :

               I'm searching for a tutorial on how to insert windows/doors on either a single or double faced wall.
      
                                          Thanks,
                                        garystan

        One example for double faced wall and components:

          If you make your window component with gluing/cutting behaviors, and its blue axis matches the wall face's normal [automatic if component is made on a face initially], then it'll 'cut' a hole in the face onto which you initially place an instance of it [at least if it's in the same 'context']

          My "HolePunchTool" lets you punch a real hole in a multi-skinned wall, and then that 'hole' selects/moves with the associated cutting component.
