Elevator object - how to customize car depth

Anonymous
Not applicable
Using AC20. The elevator object allows you to set your interior car width independently from your hoistway width, but the car depth seems to be locked to hoistway depth, even though there is a parameter for car depth in the "Dimensions..." settings. For example, if I have my hoistway depth set to 7'-0", my car depth is locked at 6'-2 9/16", and corrects back to that if I try to change it. Does anyone know of a workaround for this?

Draw it with walls...

Might not be the answer you want, but I gave up on getting the object to re-create the actual elevator I want for most of our projects. So many parameters and I never really get to the desired end result.
