Have you used this tool for just this purpose? If so, I need to add it to the tool box

If the sheathing or siding material is covering up that nailing flange than how are you are to determine it’s a window with a nailing flange? I’m asking how you specifically identify it.

Sometimes you can, sometimes you can’t. Having the window’s manufacturer sometimes help.
That one in the picture doesn’t have a flange and I recommended installing a flashing but I’m sure it won’t get installed.

To put it another way, if the exterior window frame is wood, then it most likely does not have a flange. if it is vinyl/plastic/aluminum clad then it most likely does
