I just found this thread as I was having difficulty creating a custom peakhead window. Nice work as usual by @DMDesigns, but while this video did help, I stumbled upon an easier trick to quickly get a peakhead without fussing around in the Shape tab. Instead, on the Arch tab, select a Tudor Arch, set your height, and make the radius zero. Boom. Done!

Two advantages to this method:

1. You get a nice crisp peak at the center (you can only get close with the shape method)

2. It doesn't automatically change it to a single fixed window like the shape tab does

 

I'll make a suggestion to add 'Peakhead' to the list of arch types we can choose from, but in the mean time, now you know how to quickly get one!

No disagreement on the usefulness of the Tudor Arch, but just FYI, you can get a perfectly crisp peak using the Shape tab.  To do so, just use a single Top Inside Corner and not both...
