Hi @wihibyusuf,

You could use a SetLocation custom node :
SetLocation

Thanks. im trying to find out in wich direction? edit the location is indeed with these nodes. but in which direction for example the x of y -as.

The arrow is a detail item?

Get the geometry (maybe get the Bounding Box), compare Xmax-Xmin vs YMax-Ymin. Since the shape is a rectangle the larger number of the 2 compared values will tell you if it’s the X or Y direction. Assuming the majority of the windows is orthogonal.
