    Lightbulb Custom Mulled Windows

    How would I be able to create this window by using several different windows instead of using the custom lites tool?
    I used the custom lites tool but it didn't seem good enough to cut it.

    You may need to use 3d molding polines for the arched and radial mullions.

    Lew, I was talking about the actual framed window itself not the lites in it.
    The window in the attachment is made up of 7 windows that are mulled together to form the arch...I was just wondering is there was a way to do so.

    Nate,

    IF I were the old Lew I would say do a search for custom window shapes. THere is a thread on how to do this done by Archijef.
