Custom Door Leaf won't appear in list

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi,

Custom saved or scripted door leafs won't show up in our Teamwork project. I have even scripted a simple object: BLOCK a, b, zzyzx

I have set it as "Custom Door Leaf" subtype, but it didn't show up. I have exported that gsm and imported it into a new PLN and it worked...

This seems really strange! Any ideas?

I'm having the same trouble. Strange thing is, my colleague can select them just fine on his session. Same file!

This is a persisting problem. What would cause the list to depopulate?

Is there a problem with scripting your own custom leaf? So instead of modelling, and saving as a custom leaf, actually starting a new object as a Custom Leaf subtype, and coding in what you want.

This way, you can maintain frame widths, but have the leaf stretch to fit height / width of the host door.

I've tried this, and it works...but it also seems to be causing this problem (that and duplicate library parts). I can't figure out why.
