Move divison on door with sidelight or pivot door?

Hi!

I am trying to move the mullion on a door with sidelight or a pivot door as shown with the pink lines in the picture. Any advise or suggestions? 

Should I use another tool?

Hi! 

 

I tried both of these objects since that was the ones where I could choose a sidelight and adjust where it starts vertically.

My AUS door library is not quite the same as yours.

I don't seem to have anything like the Altandorr in you second image.

But I assume it has the same door leaf options as the other one.

 

Your door leafs look the same as mine, and I do not see one that has an adjustable transom height.

 

The best I can suggest is to model a custom door from slabs with the transom at the height you want.

Then select those slabs and go to FILE menu > Libraries & Objects > Save Selection as Library Part > Door Leaf.

 

Then you can choose 'custom' door leaf and choose the one you just saved.

It will not be adjustable so you have to model it the correct size.

Hi!

 

Thank you! 🙂

One of my colleagues suggested that aswell, I will try that. 

 

I thought that I might missed some setting but seems like there is no possibility to modify the transom height.

@Barry Kelly Altandorr is the Terrace Door which is a Window.

There is nothing I see in the archives.

Maybe you cancelled - I do that myself quite often.

If you do ever cancel accidentally, go to the post you replied to and press 'Reply' again.

You should see a message to load or discard previous reply.
