Bug: Arch-Top Transom Door Issue

Anonymous
Not applicable
Are there parameters missing in the new v12 Settings windows?

I can't set the spring point for the arch, and the door comes out REALLY funky on the elevations (you'll notice all the green indicating the selected object, which is ONLY the one door). What did I do wrong?

Quite a few of the AC12 windows and doors are a joke (bugs). You might try the v11 library, could be a solution to your problem.

Thanks....

I've noticed LOTS of "enter-dimension-here" boxes (per pic OP) that seem to be missing throughout the v12 doors/windows. Didn't hear anyone else griping, so figured it was just me.

Jocelyn,

Don't forget you can still see and edit all the parameters in the 'Parameters' drop down tab above. The shoulder height is listed under 'options' in the INT library version.

INT Library Version?

The Options parameter drop-down in the v12 library part doesn't show a shoulder height...

I'm amazed if it isn't somewhere in the parameters list! Have you looked under all of them? Maybe it's called something else?

I guess it's just the US library that is affected.

I have look everywhere myself on a few archtop windows, I mentioned some problems with them on a previous post. But I was wondering if the INT library had the same problems on the same windows as US version. Does anyone have a link to the INT library, would love to load it and even use it in place of some of my buggy US parts.

Jim,
Have you tried the free "combined" library from: ACE?
Did not have time right now to go look for what you mentioned,
but lots of great stuff there.
But as someone pointed out to me, i'ts based on 11 or older, so partial structural tool does not work with it, yet.

I have not spent much time with this part, but I think this is the parameter you are looking for.

Thanks Bier, I have thought about trying that out recently, but the issues of 11 door and window parts not made to work with the wall skins/core etc. But it could be an answer to some immediate problem parts. I will down load it and check it out.
