make a panel door

[Anonymous]

Hi, does anyone know how to make a panel door display on floor plan like this, 40mm frame and 18mm panel. I have been using cadimage door, but it is not capable of doing so.

Better I can customise or replace with some sort of self-defined block, like what you can do in Autocad.

If you want to see a more accurate plan representation you can try setting your wall 'Floor Plan Display' to "Projected with Overhead' and then do the same for your door.
However you probably won't see the door swing unless it is scripted in the 3D view for the object (which I doubt it would be).

Otherwise all the detail you want to see must be scripted in the 2D view of the object.

In Model View Options you should see an option for the 2D level of detail for doors.
If you door has been scripted to make use of this level of detail then you may get what you want there - this will globally affect all doors in you plan.

Barry.
