Where do I find imported RFA Objects ?

Hi everyone !

When I import an RFA Object AC25 asks me how to store it. Suggestions in this particular case were 'Object', 'Door', 'Window' or 'HKLSE' (this is pluming, venting etc. in german). I chose 'Door' (Tür) because the imported Object is a garage door. I got a promt that everything went fine and the object has been added to the embeded Library (Doors) i guess). But I cannot find it anywhere :o(

where can it be ??

If you saved it as a door, then you have to use the door tool (not the object tool) to place it.

You will find it in the Embedded Library.

I wish it would be that easy.

Works for me.

I import the RFA object as a door.

I get a message to say it has been created as a door and in in the embedded library.

I go to the door tool, and browse the embedded library and it is there ready to place.
