Can't create a "spanish french door" panel

Anonymous
Not applicable
I am trying to create a "spanish" style grid pattern on my exterior french door in Special Edition Lib 9.

What I am trying to accomplish is getting 3 horzontal grids in the glass (these I get ) and NO vertical mullions (enter "0" in the field and this crashes the macro).

I can get the grid pattern in a sliding door, but not a exterior french.

Any help

Can you give us the complete name of the library part that you're having a problem with?

Thanks,

Thanks for you help..

The door I am using (trying too) is..

Wood Entrance Doors 9
D2 French.

I would show you a pic of the screen (like others do, but I do not know how to take a screen shot and mark it up...)

I can confirm that that is a bug in all of the Entrance Doors ... they give an error if there are zero verticals. I'll report it. A further bug in the two french entrance doors is the limited panel choice. Custom belongs there among others.

As a substitute, you can perhaps use the D2 door under Wood Internal? It lets you specify 0 vertical.

Cheers,
Karl

Thanks.. That worked.
I remember that in the original 9 library, the problem occurred, but I got around it by selecting 1 vert mullion, but then selected/ forced the location of the mullion to be against one side of the glass pane. But SE9 library does not have that parameter to mess with.

Thanks again..

Do a search for "screen shot" (search button above), there are suggestions elsewhere in the forum, depending on your platform.
