AC15: Door Swing NOT Door Flip Setting Question

Anonymous
Not applicable
I cannot find this basic setting in the Door object properties

How do I change a door from Left to Right?

I do not want to flip door from in swing to out swing

I want to simply change the "handing" on the door as we yankees say

Thanks in advance

If you have already placed the door then just use the mirror command and use the centre of the door (along the wall length) as the mirror point.
Unlike normal mirroring where you need to define 2 points as your mirror plane you only need one with doors and windows as they must mirror in the wall.
This will change the handing.

If you are placing a door then you choose the hand by the position of the cursor on the last click.

Thank you

I feel like a dunce and was looking for that data point in the door...not the object sub-menu edit command

I think I need to take a break learning this thing
