how dow you change the door swing in the curtain wall? I saw the label for inside and outside. How to i change what side it swings on. The only I could do was change the direction of the door (top and bottom)

I did a quick check, and I found that the only commands available, when a door (or panel) is selected in CW editing mode, are Mirror and Rotate. But i was not able to get any result from them.

select CW>edit in 3D. Select door panel and go to its settings, under options> opening direction will change door swing from outside to inside and vise versa. Opening type will change door swing from left to right (and vise versa)

Yes, I saw that, but it ALSO changes in what side of the CW the door opens, so I discarded this option.
I think here we are discussing on simply swatch the sides right/left, so wich hand you use when PULLING the door to enter.

sorry, what?
i've described two different functions in my post... i don't understand what you mean???
you can keep the door opening into the room for example but have the hinge side on left or right (opening type)

or you can keep the hinge side where it is and change the door opening outwards from a room...(opening direction)

what more do you need?

Sorry, I was sure I was missing something very obvious

I didn't saw the "opening type" parameter, where you can choose the hinge position!

Now, after apologizing, can I ask for a more usual "mirror" checkbox (like in the Object settings)? I'm suggesting it for ALL the doors, non only for the CW's ones.
