Quite right the windows have been edited, the x and y co-ords have
been pushed out to the edges of the underlying surface leaving the
wall overlapping at the top and bottom only - hence the warning.

To be absolutely clear I am not implying that the Partial-Overlap
warning is the result of a model created in DesignBuilder, I have
knowingly and wilfully tried to modify the idf generated by DesignBuilder.
