Nanowall system - 5 panel door

[rob2218]

Looking to see if anyone out there has made a custom door panel. We are in need of a 5 panel "Nanawall" type door.

requirements are:
1. 5 panel door.
2. in 2d should look like example.
3. in 3d behave and act as a door.
4. should have jambs, sills, trim..etc..

if anyone can help.
I've done a very primitive custom door panel but it has no jambs nor sills nor thresholds and I can only make it "stretchy".

I've been able to modify the 2D view using the "Open Object" dialogue box but other than that....i'm stumped.

thanks.

Does anyone know if the "Archicad 14 Install CD's" contain both the International libraries "AND" the U.S. libraries all in the same CD's?

If so, how can you extract only the Internation Libraries from the Install CD?

Still need that "nanawall" door system.

The distribution DVD only contains the libraries for the localized version. Graphisoft does not have any official (or any that I know of at the moment) sites where you can download other localized versions in order to grab their libraries.

I just checked my copy of the INT 14 library (from the initial release), and I do not see the 3 to 7 panel door that Erika mentions.

I found a D3 Sliding 14 that has 3 stacking panels, Nana like, but do not see an option to add more panels.

There is also a D1 Sliding Folding Multipanel 14, which allows for an arbitrary number of panels which slide and fold, accordian-style.

Edit: duh - did not see your plan-view to realize that you DO want accordian-style opening. See next message.

Cheers,
Karl

Here is a folder that you can load into your project with Lib Mgr - will not conflict with the US library (but would conflict with INT, since that's where it came from). Should give you the door you asked for. I think.

I uploaded it here, too:

Thought I'd revive this thread, since AC 15 US still doesn't have what we're all looking for. Next library update, please?

Thanks, Karl, nice to have. The panel rails and stiles, among a handful of other parametrics, aren't adjustable, though.

Choose the H-V grid and you can set the frame dimensions.
Panels set to '1' for both vertical and horizontal will give you the single panel.
There is also the custom panel option available.

Karl,
tried downloading the AC14 nana-type door you mentioned but...when I load the door GSM object...the software is asking me to find the "macros" ??? What and where do I have to place the macro folders off the zip file?

[Karl Ottenstein]

The AC 14 version in the depository doesn't work with the US 15 or 16 libraries... duplicate macros in the download... and a bunch of missing macros that are no longer in the 15/16 libs (presumably re-named). Sorry.
