    In the window dbx make the window match the roof and then adjust the side heights.

    First, determine how much higher you want the "peak" of the window in elevation from the regular rectangular window shape.
    In the roof dbx, on the "shape" tab, change the left or right height to what you want for your peak height, then in "from" enter half the window width.

    Make the top window have a "Tudor Arch" (in the Window Spec. DBX
    under the "Arch" tab).

    Adjust the arch to match your roof pitch...
