How import Garage doors from Library 17 to Archicad 21 ?

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 08:44:46 GMT

I have install trial version of Archicad 21. And tried to put garage doors to my new project. Well, there is nothing ! So i have googled this garage doors:

https://bimcomponents.com/GSM/Details/16339

download entire library, use library manager to import that lib. But i got duplicity warning. But still.. when I try to drag and drop this garage doors or search them. Its impossible. No way to use them. Practicaly in Archicad 21, there is almost nothig in default library.

What I am doing wrong?

Not at the computer but first thought: You are probably searching for them under the "objects"-tab.

Try looking under "doors". My hunch is that they are probably there.

As already mentioned you are looking in the object tool.
The garage door is a door so you need to use the door tool.
