Is it possible to add a trapezoid window with a pitch of less than 1 degree? Or is there another tool I can use to achieve the same result?

I am using Home Design Studio 21 for MAC.

Thanks,
Carol

Yes, indeed. Insert a trapezoidal window => select the window => go to the Properties bar (right side of the screen) => select the desired pitch.

Hope this helps.

Hi there and thanks for replying. But, the problem I have is that I want the pitch to be less than "1" in "12" - for example, maybe ".5" in "12" - but the program doesn't let me enter a number less than 1.

Go to Design => Unit of measure => select the desired precision and readout.

Punch, as any program, has a learning curve. The best way to learn the program, IMO, is practice + practice + practice => Read and follow the manual (this is important) => try to create elements not related with your project, so you will become familiar with the commands and how to manage the different components.

If you are interested, my eBook for Punch V21 for Mac includes lots of tutorials and how-to guides.

Hope this helps.
