Adjusting a upvc window - is it possible as it has a draughty gap atthe edge!
In my house I have a not very new upvc window (fitted by the previous
owners) and in cold weather there is a bad draft from the bottom left
corner of the bottom half, which opens upwards from a central position
(it is like a sash window in appearance, though not in operation). I
can in fact see out through this gap.Its about 2-3mm wide.
Is it possible to adjust/move the hinges so that it will close this
gap?
I can see that the panel that opens is not quite central at the
bottom, seems to be less of a problem nearer the top.
Window looks like this:

x x top panel is fixed

xxxxxxxxxxxxx - hinges are here

x x bottom panel lifts from bottom up, outwards
away from room

Any help or advice is appreciated.
Thanks
