Curtainwall Door/Window Opening Line Orientation

Hobbesnb

I've noticed this problem for a while now, and wondered if anyone else had run into it or found a solution that I'm missing.

The opening line orientation in the Door and Window Panels for the Curtain wall tool will not display correctly like a normal door or window. I cannot switch the orientation from 'hinge side' to 'handle side', nor do the opening lines even extend to the edges of the door panel. Changing the MVO options or overriding them does no good.

See attached screenshot.

That SHOULD be the solution, but it doesn't work. The curtain wall door and window objects don't respond to the MVO settings or the overrides.

Seems like this is still a bug.

Can't wait for 18 😕

Drawing 2 lines is the recommendation?

Didn't find the answer?
