Door Problem

Anonymous · ‎2009-03-18

When I go to place a double door (a D2 or in this case a D2 Segmented Transom) the door panel width always changes on me. For example, I place the door with the default width, let's say 5'-0". Let's say I go to enlarge the door to a 6'-0" width, this is where the problem arises. One panel stays at 2'-6" wide and the other goes to 3'-6" wide. I know under "Elevation and Opening" you can change the width to match (you have to manually do the math for it and type it in), but in this specific case that is grayed out and I cannot do anything. Shouldn't the door panels automatically be the same width anyway? What is happening in this specific case that I cannot change the width?

72 Views and no answer? Can anyone replicate this issue? Does it work for anyone? Is this a bug? Should I complain to Graphisoft? Am I asking too many questions? Is anyone annoyed? Is anyone listening?

Maybe a screenshot will help?
Architects tend to see problems visually.

Maybe I just stumped everyone

It's a known problem and has been discussed in earlier posts.

Look in "Door Panel" Parameters for "Panel Division Type".
Check: Proportional

and a screen shot for us Architects

Unfortunately, for the D2 Segmented Transom , this option is not available
