Door Jamb Glitch

Rene Pahlavan

Hello--

I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing this issue, and what the cause might be. As seen in the screenshots attached, the same door is placed twice in one wall - one opens to the outside the other to the inside, but the one opening to the inside has the jamb sticking out of the wall. If I flip the door to the other way it is behaving correctly, but flipping it to the outside causes this glitch that doesn't properly install the door in the wall as it should. Have experienced this a few other times with even more displacement where sometimes the door and frame are totally outside the wall but still cutting the opening. Anyone have any advice on how to solve this?

Minh,

I just updated my AC and libraries to version 24 USA, build 5002, Win64, SOLO version and am still having this issue with the D1 24 object when the frame depth is different than the wall depth and the wall closure type is set to stud wall. This does not occur when the wall closure type is set to solid wall.

Also, when did the USA library door objects lose the door frame parameter "frame depth=wall thickness"? It's really annoying not having this parameter anymore
Hello,

Thank you very much for the report and I am very sorry about the situation!

What you mentioned here is only Archicad update, which won't be enough to fix the issue. Unfortunately, the library update is not available for SOLO version. Library update is a separate package, that requires another installer to update the library contents.

I am very sorry for the inconvenience! Please let me know if you have any questions!

Best regards,
Minh
