Re: Windows in a inclined roof
no2,
You may want to read the tutorial about roofs (PDF). It shows a solution. Of course you can also insert a window in the roof parts before you export and import them. Then the window lies flush in the roof.
If you have more questions, please ask.

Re: Windows in a inclined roof
The ceiling isn't visible from top by design (otherwise you wouldn't be able to see your layout from top). Inclined windows are not really supported: since version 3.4, you can choose the angle you want when you import a 3D model, but then holes in the ceiling won't be computed automatically.
Please, read also this document for nice workarounds found by hansmex.

Re: Windows in a inclined roof
no2,
Attached you will find two files: - your house with roof and windows - the roof with windows, before using export/import (see tutorial).
To make such a roof, and make sure it fits nicely on the house, it's wise to give your walls exact X,Y coordinates. Mouse-drawn coordinates are not very precise, and therefor it will be difficult to make a roof that fits well.
Study the files, and let me know if this is what you wanted.
