Hi everyone,
I’m working in Archicad 28 and facing an issue with composite wall finishes at door openings.
Problem:
In a composite wall, I want the plaster finish to continue behind the door frame, but currently the plaster stops at the wall face and does not wrap behind the frame.
I am using:
Composite wall with plaster as the outer skin
Hinged Door (standard Archicad door)
Closure Type: Finish Closure
Wall Closure settings enabled in the Door Tool
Operating system used: Windows 11

The model looks correct. Maybe you can share a picture of what you want?

Uhh.... I don't think that any of the GS doors allow this; I've tried but didn't manage to accomplish this.
But on the other hand to have the plaster done like this is also highly unusually.

That type of drywall detail is used for bifold doors on closets where only a half jamb and trim is installed on the room side of the wall. The bifold door then fits behind the jamb eliminating the visible side gaps. It also saves 1/2 the cost of the door trim.

Could you use the Custom Closure? Do not think there is a way to merge the internal and external skins though...
The Plaster Reveal can do the same.
