Model custom bay window / join windows

DangCad1

I’m working on a project with bay windows where I can’t use the bay window object, therefore I want to use separate windows and join the corners. 

It looks good in 3D, but in plan there is a ”gap” between the windows and I can’t understand why. I’m using the correct angle for the connection, so what might be the problem here?

 

see screenshot below

Try 67.5° (135° divided in half).

That didn’t work but 135 degrees did! Don’t really understand why since it’s not the right angle but problem solved. Thanks!

My bad.

You need to specify the full angle which is 135°.

The end of the window is at 67.5°.
