Graphical override rule based on door dimensions

Hello,

 

This post is a follow-up to a thread that was not answered on a French-language forum : https://www.archi-cadlink.fr/viewtopic.php?p=39523#p39523

The topic is : "Is it possible to create a graphical override rule based on door dimensions ?"
Creating a graphical override rule based on the generic width of a door is not sufficient, as the goal here is to color in doors that do not allow sufficient passage width for a wheelchair.

Hi 
I did a try. You can use the general rule width, but then for the door size you need to choose and select the following one:

In this way is working for me 🙂 Let me know if it helps.

Hello,

 

Thanks about your answers but as I said ...

Sorry here should be egress dimension the number 4. It's true tha you don't have a dimension with the door leaf open that is what you are looking for. So you need to study which is the minimum dimension 4 to insert in your graphical override rule. Hope that you have the same doorleaf everywhere 🙂
