Curtain wall sliding door plan representation

Leon_K

Hi all,

 

For some reason in ARC 26 it seems that the plan representation of a curtain wall sliding door is faulty. When I edit my curtain wall by replacing a main/distinct panel for a custom one and select the sliding door, the doorframes should overlap in the center (otherwise the wind will blow through). However, archicad seems to think the panels should not overlap and thereby showing a faulty floor plan representation.

 

I haven't ever seen a sliding door being manufactured like this, so I presume there should be an easy fix for this. I can't seem to find it in the door settings though. Any thoughts on this?

 

Sincerely.

Hello @Leon_K,

 

I had never noticed this point before and yes it's true !

The plan representation seems to be wrong.
