Triangular windows (again?)

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi,

I am sure this issue was discussed before but here we go again (?)

I need to draw a triangular window on the right half of a gable wall. The left stile and bottom sill would be perpendicular, the long diagonal side parallel to the roof pitch. The window would be 4000mm wide, 1000mm high with a diagonal at 15°.

Can it be done?

I used: Archicad Lib - Windows - Special windows - W Trapezoid Fix 10. Then just set the short stile down to whatever to get your 'raked' window.
