triangle window

How is it done? The trapezoid window will not go to a zero shoulder height and the triangle window top edge from center does not go to align with edge. I am obviously missing something.

Interesting.

1) I actually placed the window in a wall with no issues.

2) Could it be to do with imperial vs metric?

3) Could it be related to your version 11? I am using 13, and will test it in 11 in about 6 hours when I get access to Library 11.

Srinivas,
Thanks very much! I have not tried but looks like it may work.

Still am curious as to why my window produces an error.

Hey guys..

Petri's window object looks fantastic!! I went to go grab it, but when I hit the 'download' button, it asks me to log in again, which brings me back to the depository front page. I go to the object, hit download and it starts the log in loop again! Argghhh!!!

Could I get one of you guys to e-mail it to me?

OR....

Tell me what I need to do with my machine's settings to let me break the loop.

Thanks!

It's working fine here Dave. Is some security software (or your browser setting) eating up all the AC-Talk cookies?
