Arched Window Headers

[GeorgieB82]

Here in the South of England it is commonplace to find windows with arched top window openings which the top of the frame will fill unlike the existing masonry arch settings in Archicad which fill the arched segment with the wall material effectively making a rectangular window with a brick arch inset into the wall which is not the case in my example.

These windows can be shown with or without a brickwork arch like the image below

I am not technically minded but would it be possible to include an option for a 'shaped' top in the window settings?

Have you had a good look in the library?
They may not do exactly what you want but that is another matter.
It would be very hard to script a window that can do everything that may be required.
Sometimes it is easier to make your own custom window from slabs.

One approach is to place the Arch Top Window Opening for the brick opening, place a Wall inside that opening, then place the casement and transom windows in that small Wall.
