Does anyone know if there is a way to use cadimage door and window builder to do a stackable door equivalent to archicad's movable wall..? or other alternatives...
I find the "movable wall" not very flexible at all.... I need to get the door to be closed in elevations but open in plan plus the "wall" (door panels) are non editable like cadimage doors or windows....

You can stack as many sliding doors as you like, but as far as I'm aware you cannot get them to sit in a single plane when closed, as a moveable wall does. They maintain the offsets required to run past each other.
Door options available in image below. Surface slider runs past wall, closet slider is typically two doors that run past each other, usually within the wall thickness.
Make sense?

I've included an image to show what I would like to do on plan (the movable wall from archicad). My main problem is that the movable wall is still open in elevation as well as the panels are not adjustable at all in terms of panel types etc.
I've tried to get the effect by offsetting a number of single swinging doors but can't get the effect since you can only control two doors (right and left), what if you have 5 or 6 panels?
I've also tried different options in term of using it as a window (since you can with a window control each individual panel separately) but no luck. I can get the windows to open up correctly but they just wont stack...and further more the plan symbol will not show the actual swing it self...
make any sense..?

Is the movable wall still available in Archicad15? I am looking for it and cannot (obviously) find it.

I was hoping for something a little more robust. I've tried using both the D1 and D2 Sliding Folding Multipanels, but neither of them give me what we need. Essentially I need panels that swivel around their own centre points which can then be stacked at one end, preferably which could show proper acoustic wall build ups and gasket connections.
cheers,
