Corner Windows Buggy

Hi,
Trying to insert some corner windows and getting the same strange [unacceptable] behavior on both mac and pc in AC9.

Using the corner window tool, windows only come in as non-corner type.
There is no snapping window to corner whatsoever.
Tried every window type in AC.

Tried inserting a corner window by activating the regular window tool and then choosing the one corner window in the corner window folder. Here I had a bit more luck, but still nothing that worked correctly as the window did not snap to corner and the chamfered edge insists on staying angled the wrong way no matter how I flip or mirror the windows.


It is not working like it used to, but last time I used it was in 8.1.
Anyone else?
Is this a known bug?

Erika,
Tried to replicate the problem, and I can't. Seems to work just fine?
See attached.
Perhaps the window is buggy?

Hmmm.
Must be something in my and the mac person's technique. If I don't get it I'll give you a call.
Thanks Jacek.

KNow what you mean, I did that too...
Also when selected they seem to extend beyond the wall, they aren't. Just seems that way, must be the code to create the nice corner miter...?
