Looking for an oval gable vent.

[Anonymous]

Anyone have one of these? I have tried to make on out of various elements, but they just dont look right. I searched the forums and archibase for one, but no luck. I dont know how to make one with gdl, so I tried with walls and slabs.
Any help appreciated.
thanks

It may help if you post an picture of just what you want.

One way to fake this is to use an oval window and set the Grill to 1 Column and many (for example 10) Rows, which gives the appearance of a vent in elevation. But I will note here 2 bugs for the W Oval Fix 11 window: neither the Row or Column parameter can be set to 1 (the grill disappears) and the Row and Column parameters are reversed in the W Oval Fixed Settings (but are correct under Parameters).

David,
I tried the fake route with the window, and the grills disappeared. And it just didn't look right. Will keep poking around with it and see if I can make something acceptable. Its not a real important feature, so I may just make something or just do it in a line drawing in the elevations. Thanks for the input tho.
