L3P shrinks whole highlevel parts, thats a feature I was planning to implement
later. But if you shrink the whole part the window and brick will still share
the same stud dimensions. Shrinking only the studs could cause problems later on
when using e.g. lgeo.
So it's tough to find an all around solution, gives me something to do for 1.2 I
guess.
