Rotate halfround window

Anonymous

Is it possible to rotate the halfround window from the library so it is vertical instead of horizontal.? If not, how will you make this window easiest.

See attached image.

I would make this window with slabs. Draw the profile in 2D and then magic wand it with the slab tool active, cut a hole for the opening, then use another slab for the pane of glass. You will also need to make a hole cutting feature so the window will cut it's shape out of the wall.

Thanks. That is also a way to go.

I found another solution on the web. Similar to yours but saving as a window object.

Nice to have several options for a problem.
