If your windshield is misting up, it's possible your heater core is leaking fluid. Is your antifreeze low? As far at your broken window, it depends if the window is physically broken or the electric motor is not working.

will check anti freeze - just seems the air does not blow high enough up the window to demist it

i opened the door - the cable has broken but the motor works - looks like a horrendous job to attempt..

Take the other side apart and see how it works. It will guide you on how it works.

When you say the "cable is broken", do you mean the electric wires going to the motor?

This is the diagram from an Accent here in the US. Does your Getz look like this?
