Keystone for arched casing

Looking at that earlier thread about Chief vs Softplan and the test-bed house with its stucco trims, I got to wondering.

There is no semi-hidden feature I've missed in windows spec dialog, is there, that yields top-centered keystones?

Would such a feature be useful, or are p'solids just as easy for doing these?

Kevin Mouquin seems to do amazing stuff using window treatments.  That might be an option, you just really gotta mess with the origins of the symbol and offset settings. Haven't tried it myself.  Maybe worth it if you are going to inherently have a lot of these in a design, likely not if it's just a couple of doors.

Gene,

Here are two options:

1: Left - just pick a keystone from the Library and manually place it.

2. Right - Copy the Keystone to your user Library --- edit the z-origin to -3" --- add it as an exterior millwork above lintel --- adjust size as needed.

Obviously, the first is the easiest way.
