Curved Window with Custom Panel?

Dalius

Any idea how to make such curved window? (look at the attached sketch). There is no Custom Panel option in Curved Window 16. Many thanks for any suggestion.

How realistic is it? Do you expect to make a multi-paned window with curved elements and have the frame work out fine? Or do you consider this merely a conceptual effort?

In any event, the basic curved window will do [even if curved glass is not feasible as a multi-paned assembly] with the addition of beams/columns to fake up the mullions/muntins.

There is a GDL command to bend a flat structure, originally a wall. It depends on how flexible your window has to be, if a indivdual GDL programming is the best way.
