Custom cabinet door not appearing in list

Hello!

I would greatly appreciate any tips you might have regarding a custom cabinet door I have created that does not appear in the list you get in the cabinet object's settings. The custom cabinet door is in the embedded library. I've attached a couple of screenshots. I'm working with Archicad 25. Thank you!

Do you mean to add and lcf file or do you actually mean IFC? The library issues seem to be related to duplicate old and potentially incompatible parts being loaded as embedded objects. I think you need to try unloading all libraries and add the library from the current version of Archicad you are using, so the Archicad Library 25 for example and then load the Migration Libraries from the Graphisoft Archicad folder. If the file continues to crash try opening Archicad first then use the file open command and navigate to your file but before opening it check the box that says open and repair. 

It would be useful to understand which version and build of Archicad you are using and also which computer OS you are using.

The Warning says that there are 4 Library Parts that each have two instanced in the libraries of the Project File. Under each of the 4 Library Parts, you will see where either of the duplicates are located.

I suggest that you delete for each Library Part the one instance located in the Embedded Library, or either of of the instance if both are located in the Embedded Library.
