Doug,

Trapeziod windows follow the rake of the wall, in most cases this is the same as the roof above, so no need to adjust anything. For this to work the wall must be raked or set to fit to roof.

Or, for those who don't know, you also can set the slope as well in the miscellaneous tab of the window edit menu.
