DoorBuilder: Door with single window?

Anonymous
Not applicable
I've got this apparently bizarre requirement for DoorBuilder: a metal door with a single window. No additional panels required, no bevels. Just a flat door with a window, similar to the attached image. Surely there has to be a way to obtain this simple door with DoorBuilder - I just can't seem to figure it out. Every selection I'm provided with under 'Door Leaf > Leaf Style' that even comes close has an additional panel that I must insert.

Does anyone have any ideas?

No problem. Just use the single glazed door ( french door ) and adjust the size of the bottom rail to bring the bottom of the window to where you want it. See attached.

Cheers,

Just choose a single paneled door (with glass panel) and increase the bottom rail dimension.

Thanks - that's incredibly simple. I was stuck inside the box.
