Hi there, I am currently trying to make a curved window which will fit to a curved wall, it is doing my head in at the moment and I was hoping someone out there has done one of these before. I have atached a photo showing the window in question Cheers Sam

Hi SAM, until now i don't see any round window made by anyone in anywere but you can do this with "Curtain Wall", it's very simple to do this (image attached)... and more quick...

My recommendation would be to start your window family from a generic family template (In this case, I don't recommend using a wall based, as you would have to cut the wall, and the wall is forced straight). Go to settings->family categories and parameters, and change your family category to a window. Now create your curved window as you want it, then load it into your project. Use a wall opening to cut the wall, if this doesn't work, then create a bottom and top wall around the window. Don't use curtain walls for this, as the Mullions will be jagged...unless someone knows a fix to that?

We had a curved window and each mullion join had it's edge sticking out... like trying to make a smooth circle out of bricks. I couldn't tell by your pictures, but do the mullions themselves curve? Or are they straight?

the mullions are straight... just like the glass... if you look the Photo from "Sammyr" there are straight too...

I think by "jagged" he means the jaggies that appear on the mullions in design view. That will fix itself when you render.
