You add a reference to a balcony rule in the same bit that references the window generation and use a case to control its generation, like this:

attr BalconyEnabled = true

Lot -->
   Window
   Balcony

Window -->
   ...

Balcony -->
   case BalconyEnabled == true: RuleForBalconyCreation
   else: NIL‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

RuleForBalconyCreation -->
   ...‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Thank you, for the balcony the switch works fine but fot the details such as the red top ornament it wont. it just disapeared with this rule..

attr OrnamentTopEnabled = true

WindowOrnamentTop -->
case OrnamentTopEnabled == true: WindowOrnamentTop

s('1.2, 0.4, 0.3) center(x)
i(ornament1)
color("#ff0000")

else: NIL

That rule calls itself when the case is true, infinitely.
