I could copy and paste it and print it out in about 45 seconds, flat. So
what's the point?

I thought we were playing "name that tune" with a glass pattern, I was
bluffing, and Neo, you are bragging LOL
seriously, the idea and concept behind designing with a computer is never
draw anything twice, pull it up from the archives/library and use it, flip
it, stretch it, extend it , repeat it, get the drift?
SO in Michaels design, you draw one quarter of it, then flip, and because
there are essentially so many repeated functions, that is "repeated" copy/
paste etc.
As far as the design itself, Michael, I have no opinion as to likes or
dislikes, it works, but I do have a question or two you could ask yourself
when designing that may help you with any program you choose.
Decide on the function of the window, If the idea of the design of that
transom was to make it look shorter in height than what it is, to perhaps
make a ceiling near it look not so tall, that does it, even with a border
giving true window size, that design with all the pieces in the center of
the window area, and so much clear glass around it, makes the window look
shorter.
When I looked at the pattern earlier I wondered why all the clear glass
area? Why so much design packed together in the middle, open it up, use the
room you have, and do not be afraid of those tails, your natural hinge lines
will be gone if you open the design and let the vertical lines be minimized,
unless your intent is to let more light thru a northern exposure window,
then lots will come thru the clear.
You see how much goes into the thought process when you are putting pretty
windows in your house? You need to consider all variables as to light
quality, where on the world it is located and how much light you want in or
blocked and controlled by what you are designing.
off my soapbox, back to the flame wars!!
