The Elevator Object

[TMA_80]

Hi archicaders !

I find the elevator object interesting, the option to make the elevator "read" the story height is great BUT...this option causes problem too, if i want to have a different height for a special level (not the same of the story), the object doesn't allow anything other than the story height, the "edit story" button doesn't even seem to work (the story height still greyed)...

am i missing something ?

thanks in advance

For the Elevator 14 object, you need to edit the parameters, particularly General Settings > Direction of Second Opening, and Door > Name of Story to be Edited and Door Position of Edited Story. It may take a bit of time to get everything correct, but it is possible.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.
