I have a query with an arched opening and despite having read a few posts on the subject i am still not quite sure how to ahcieve a simple arched opening in a wall.

I attach to this post a photo which shows what i am trying to achieve.

I am happy creating a rectangular opening using the "opening" tool but would appreciate some help making it arched or recatangular with a semi-circular arch on top.

Hope to hear from you soon

Hi, don't use the "Opening" tool, go to the "Elevation view", pick in wall and pick in "EDIT PROFILE", then appears 4 Magenta lines, create the shape you want for your opening, then "Finished Sketch. (see image attached)
