Door Opening Lines in 2d status

fuzzytnth3 — Wed, 24 May 2023 08:54:30 GMT

Has anyone found a REQUEST command that can give the current status of the MVO for "Door Opening Lines in 2d" ie whether it is set to curved or straight?

fuzzytnth3:

I don't know if there is a request function, but the settings from the MVO are being passed to the individual library parts, where these parts may or may not use the MVO settings depending on their code. You should start with the library part that creates the MVO globals (LibraryGlobals13 in the AC 14 Object Library > MACROS 14 > Base Macros 14 > Library Globals 14 folder), it has a parameter D_iSwingType which controls the swing type for doors, you will then need to follow this parameter into the door parts to see where it is used, the doors in 14 have an option for overriding the MVO settings. As usual, following the code in Graphisoft's library parts is a challenge, but you should be able to get the setting(s) you are looking for.

Had a good old rummage around in the macros but wasn't able to track the pesky thing. Shall try again another day when things are a bit quieter
