Is there a way to create a window that fits between two roof slopes that is sloped top and bottom to match the roofs? I realize I could create something with lines, but it owuld be nice if it would automatically follow the slopes like the trapazoid windows.

Do you have an example? is this something from a manufacturer or a custom built shape?

Looks like I didn't get the image attached last time. Anyway this is the idea.

This would be something custom. As it turns out we went with a more standard style of window here, but it would be interresting to know if it would be able to draw something like this without starting from scratch with something totally custom.

Complex units like that are best created with sections or elevation drawings then creating elevation openings from there.  The attached one was tricky but looked beautiful after the house was built.
