triangle windows

Guys, I am having a hard time shaping windows. I know how to "match roof shape" but it still does not make them triangular like shown below in red. I want to delete the middle window and have two perfectly symmetrical triangle windows. I think that would look better for this home.

Make the window taller then redo the "match roof".

Already tried that as well as manipulating the height of the window size. Nothing works......

If you have the Marvin window catalog downloaded in Chief there are triangle windows in there if you search for P3-1 & P3-2. You should be able to adjust the width & height to match your pitch, or the match roof function might work too. @winterdd

I got it to work by manually gripping the window and sizing accordingly and then match roof. The circled area has been an issue for years.

Good deal. For future reference I'm pretty sure it is possible to make triangle windows using the shape tab in the window dbx and adjusting the individual corner heights & offsets too.

 

I think the overlapping casing might fix itself if you mull the windows together.
