Re: Window shapesBy the way, in the kitchen model above, I used a box with th marble texture form the library afor the benches.
The main room also has a sloping cathedral ceiling and it was trying to get lights on the sloped celing that led me to this forum! There is another thread I started on the forum involving lights and sloping celiilngs - maybe I sould have posted this there.
In the pics below, you will see that the light on the celilng does not activate one the celiing is sloped. In the seceond picture, there are light sources attached (randomely at the moment!) to the sloped ceiling to light the floor area below. These light sources were lifted out of a light test room linked on one of the forums. (I think Hans drew the test room?)
The luminosity is lower than the standard ceiling light (I experminetd with sizing the light - made no change - but I will place multiple lights to mimic the actual room lighting scheme.
In the pics below, I have used a box to replicate the beam that wil be placed where there is presently a wall.
As you can see - I am enjoying using the software! Well done to the developers!

(In the second pic, I used the advanced render tool (very nice Emmanuel!) to turn off the ceiling lights and activate 'lamps'.
I have also installed the advanced render 1.2 and am experimenting with the sunlight positions.)----------------------------------------
