I'm flipping lost. I need to build a gabled wall with two side-by-side windows the go to the roof line. The Trapezoid window shape is perfect, but only angles one direction. How do I get the same window with the opposite angle? Gotta be possible right??
I'm on FP-Mac21

Hi there,

Yes, it is possible.
In the Window Style menu, select the Trapezoidal Window model and place it in the wall (pointed with green arrow in the image attached) => right click => the two available options will appear => Flip Horizontally / Flip Vertically (pointed with a red arrow in the image attached) => Select the desired option.

Hope this helps.

Thank you soooooo much. That's so simple, I'm embarrassed by how much time I spent trying to figure that out.

You're welcome!  8)

FloorPlan, as any program, has a learning curve. The best way to learn the program, IMO, is practice + practice + practice => Read and follow the manual (this is important), see the videos => try to create elements not related with your project, so you will become familiar with the commands and how to manage the different components and settings.
