Hi 
Im about to start a new project but it has a roof light 2950mm x 1200mm in the ceiling. Has anyone drawn one of these or can direct me to the right place to find one. 
Many Thanks

Thanks Joe that would do.
Might sound silly but how do I get that from there to my drawing for resizing? 
How does this sit within the ceiling do I sit it just below and then it cuts out the ceiling as obviously its no good if the ceiling still runs through.
Hope these arent to stupid questions

Easy way is use cubic boxes to create new ceiling. Make origional ceiling a little bit higher and make it transparent. Pop the sketchup file into place above cubic boxes.

For a quick fix search for lantern in Articad. There's a fixed size 3000 x 1500 plus two others that are scalable.

Hi Pete,
The one at the top is some of the glass sections are grey rather than Trans?... does it render transparent properly in "HD"?
