Anonymous

I am wondering if any one here would have or have a link to anybody that has a dutch door I can add to my library. I am on a time sensitive project or i would just make it myself. Thank you in advance.
P.S. If i have to make it myself how do i make sure that both portions of the door have opening parameters for the 3d representation?

Can you explain what a Dutch door is for those of us in foreign lands? Sounds like a stable door, split horizontally, top and bottom half open independantly, is that right?

Daniel:

For a quick and dirty solution, you could stack two short doors vertically, this will give you individual control over the 3D opening angle of each panel. The shorter height may play havoc with the door panel styles and trim, it depends on what you are trying to achieve.

If you make your own door, you will need to create a new parameter for the 3D opening angle of the second panel, and this will need a variable name that is different from the variable name of the first panel. You will also want to add another parameter to control the height of one of the panels. The rest of the script should be very similar to a single swing door part.
