Misaligned door

Anonymous
Not applicable
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help with this.

I built this door using the slab tool. The user origin was placed at the center of the bottom rail, but when I use it as a custom panel in D2, it looks as if it has moved halfway through the door frame (like a sliding door). It looks fine in plan, but when projected into 3D it slips to the side of the door frame.

To create a GDL object - do you have to open an entirely new file? Is that the problem?

When you create a [custom] panel, it needs to be saved as an object not a door.
