Change Sub-Mode keyboard shortcut.
Opening Type can always be changed at a later stage in the Data-Grid

on one of the openings edges🖱
Left-Click
again to finish creation.
🖱 Right-Click

You can manually enter the width of the Opening after the first click, by typing the width in millimetres and hitting the ⌨ Enter

Openings are named numerically in order of creation, so a handy tip is to create windows according to the window schedule naming so that you do not need to rename windows or doors at a later stage.
