Hi Curt Vogt,

Click the window icon--> the last icon is the Custom window button, you will find several windows models

In addition, you can use the windows designer (Power Tools) to create your own window design

I have been in this area (Custom Windows) alot and I believe my problem lies with the wall, not the windows. I believe that I need a sloped wall to put the windows into, the windows are just flat fixed glass. I have tried the elevation editor, but I can't seem to rotate the wall from the side elevation which would create an angled wall if just one point was moved outward. Can I create a custom exterior wall profile?

Hi Curt Vogt,

You can click in the wall shape button (see image attached) and choose several wall shapes

If the shape is not there, you can build a "wall object" with the 3D workshop

Another option is
- create a window with the window designer (following the shape of the wall)--> set the right elevation--> the wall will take the shape of the window

Hope this helps

Hello, I think Curt is looking to see if he can put a window in a wall that leans over ie. look at the side profile & move the head of the wall left or right relative to the base. Curt - as far as I know walls are only ever upright. However with the latest V10 software you could make a "roof" section at the angle you require & then put a skylight in the roof for your window & texture the roof to look like a wall. Alternatively, I think you could build a wall with window in 3D workshop as an object & then tilt that to your required angle, but I think this would be a lot more work. Best of luck, Neil.
