    I'm glad you got the problem resolved.  Just FYI, For Rent added a new feature in build that might help when curtains are offset like you were experiencing.  If you press F5 while in build, it gives you the ability to adjust the location of objects on the wall and floor by a fifth of a tile, both up and down and side to side until you press it again so you can have the ability in live mode as well.  Keep in mind that there is an F5 command in live mode that does something else though. 

    And I have found that a lot of the time, I can get the curtain to place if I temporarily move or delete the window, place the curtain, then put the window back.  That really helps when the curtain insists on going on the outside rather than the inside of a window.

    Hope this helps.

Which window and curtain are causing the problem for you?  Just need the build/buy catalog names of both items.  

Hope this helps.

    Eventually it fixed itself, but I had to use a different curtain entirely.
