Can't find missing door

[kevin b]

I have a small project, which was started in AC!2 but the person who started it had the migration library loaded and was using older favorites so many of the doors were AC11 parts. In our efforts to keep as much stuff current as possible, I try to upgrade all the doors (among other things) to AC12 parts.

So all of the doors are now AC12 doors. However, when I unload the Migration Library I get a Library Loading error that door D1 Commercial Door 11 is missing. I turn all the layers on, I check every door individually. I use find and select sort door object by name and D1 Commercial Door 11 shows up on the list of possible doors but when you hit select, nothing gets selected.

It's obviously buried somewhere but how can I find it and how to get rid of it?

I know, I could just load the Migration Library but we are trying to get everyone to use only new objects and if the 11 Migration Library isn't loaded they can't use those parts by "accident"

May be that it is called as a macro, from some other object?

You can try to load all the libraries (incl. migration) and save a copy of the file, in PLA format, then open it and expand the library, so you get "editable" objects. Then open the D1 Commercial Door 11 lib. part and add, at the very beginning of the Master Script:
SPHERE 10
and save.
If that object is really used, you will see a big ball in you project (20 meter diameter).
Then, if you can select the sphere (the door) in 3D, you can delete or substitute it.

Hi Kevin,

Check to see if it is still set as the default door in the door settings.

You could also try creating a quick temporary schedule, and list all the doors used in the project. Use the 'select on floorplan' button if it shows up. This should highlight it on any storey.

Try the reverse, load the 11 migration library and NOT the 12 library. The only door that won't be a DOT will be your door.

It may also be possible that a Favorite is still referring to the library part that is not available in the loaded libraries and this causes the message to appear.

Thanks Laszlo, always something new to learn.
