Doors in Curtainwall tool

[jkershaw]

I have placed doors in a curtain wall. Yay.

Now, by what secret combination of settings do I get those doors to read properly in plan (showing door swing) AND in RCP (not showing door swing). I can't seem to pull it off, having tried using multiple combinations of Model View Options and curtain wall tool Floor Plan Display Settings.

This cannot be so difficult. Doors placed using the Door tool work properly.

Thanks!

Are these the two options you wish to achieve?

thank you for the reply!

The RCP in your example is not quite right. On the RCP, we should see "wall contour" lines - or in this case, the contour line of the curtain wall frame above the door.

That's where I'm having the issue.

Unfortunately I cannot offer you an easy solution for that scenario.
You could just draw those lines with simple Lines.
I would place those lines on a separate layer that would be visible only in the Layer Combination created for the Reflected Ceiling Plan.

Hi.

Or better yet.... cut out the door from the curtain wall contour and place a normal door in a wall (same size as the door so it doesn't show). Doors will be easier to manage, schedule, tag, dimension and modify this way.

Best regards.
