What are your automatic or semi-automatic sliding doors made of?

What are your automatic or semi-automatic sliding doors made of?
It would be nice if it could be expressed with the sensor and the open button.

Made of?  Do you mean material?  Depends on the manufacture.  Do you mean is it a Door or an Object in ArchiCAD?  Do you mean what ArchiCAD parts could you model the door with that would have the sensor button where you like it?  Do you mean what file format is it ?

I asked a question about what can be made of that door in archicad.
I'd like to know how far this is possible.
Except for modeling. (This is because the variable cannot be used.)

It is still not really clear what you want.

Are you looking for an object that can do this?

If so, I am not aware of any standard ones.

I am not even sure if any 3rd party door tools could make this exactly as you want.

 

I would model it from slabs flat on the floor and then save as a door object.

It won't be parametric, but you will get it to look exactly as you want in as much detail as you want (i.e. sensors and buttons).

 

Otherwise if you want a parametric object, there really is no other choice except for you to script it yourself in GDL to do exactly as you want.
