window stucco

I removed a door and filled the lower space with cinderblocks. Then I added a window to the upper part. The window that I had custom made was a bit smaller than the opening. So now I'm a little stuck at the stucco part. Do I need to use an agent to stick the stucco to the painted wall? And do I need to use lath corners around the opening. I'll attach a pic. Thanks

. Image May be rotated. The dark part is a new stucco coat under the window

I'm not sure exactly what I'm seeing.

Is this an exterior stucco wall? If so, then this window needs to be completely removed and reinstalled correctly with moist stop/jiffy seal and correctly lathing techniques, not to mention a new construction fin.

If this is interior and you're talking about plaster, then depending on the plaster depth you can just patch it with drywall and mud/imperial.

Please clarify some more :thumbsup:
