[Equest-users] creating different shaped window in equest

[Eddie Corwin]

I agree.  Windows can only be rectangular.  Unless you re preforming daylighting 
calculations, the area of glass, and the area of frame are all that matter.  So 
you can make a rectangular window that has the equivalent glass and frame area 
as your triangular window.

From what I understand, windows cannot be assigned to a polygon.  They are only 
rectangles.

Hi 
I want to create a triangle shape window in equest..
if i try to create a new window to link to my existing component, it can only be 
with 4 vertices( rectangle or square)
if i create a diff polygon.. i cannot assign a glass materail to it.. it only 
excepts exterior material finishes which are available in equest..
can anyone tell how to assign a window material to a new polygon in detailed 
design mode or any other way to go about it
thanks
Deepika
