Custom cabinet door not appearing in list

Hello!

I would greatly appreciate any tips you might have regarding a custom cabinet door I have created that does not appear in the list you get in the cabinet object's settings. The custom cabinet door is in the embedded library. I've attached a couple of screenshots. I'm working with Archicad 25. Thank you!

Have you clicked the little black arrow next to the empty box beneath ‘Custom Panel’ on the right hand side of your palette? That should let you select the custom panel you wish to use from your embedded library.

Thank you for your reply! Unfortunately nothing appears when I click on the little arrow. I ended up deleting some large items from the embedded library and it now works! Go figure!

Did you save your objet as a "Cabinet door" type object, if not it will not appear in the list.

That would suggest an guID conflict. Open the object and try clearing the coll_guid parameter. It has been known to cause issues with door panels.

Thank you for your reply! I had saved it as a "Cabinet door" type... I ended up deleting a lot of things from the embedded library and it helped, the custom cabinet appeared!

Thank you so much for your reply! I will try it!!
