External corner sliding doors

Anonymous

I'm trying to create something like the attached - perpendicular sliding doors meeting at the corner to reveal a corner opening. Any thoughts on how I would model that? I don't have CAD image but I have a library part called "AUS_WinDoorBuilder"

You can just use the Corner-Window tool provided with ARCHICAD... you'll find it in the "more" group in the toolbar...

Yes, I have experimented with that. However with the corner window tool and using two sliding windows, I am unable to get rid of the corner frame piece.

Corner doors have been a topic for a long time... I think there might have been a clean way to do it with the CadImage tools but other than that...

You are completely right, I can believe Archicad does not allow to do this yet.... It is a very common window solution nowadays and I can't afford to pay for the expensive CI tools
