Sliding door with asymmetric sliding panels

[Space_Agency]

Wondering if anyone knows of an asymmetric sliding glass door library object (Graphisoft or 3rd party)? For example a sliding door that has a sliding panel and fixed panel of different sizes, like a 3' wide sliding panel and a 6' wide fixed panel. I think the CI tools can do it, but $370 a year for a single door is a bit much. Thanks ahead of time for the help.

Sadly, the ArchiCAD library, inparticular doors and windows has been buggy and lacking way back to 1994. 

In your case, perhaps you could you place the sliding door in the plan. Cover the "assymetrical" side of the door with a 100% Solid fill. Then place another wall on top of the file, then place another sliding door in that wall adjusting parameters for setback, thickness and the like. YES, a pain in the back, but I think you could get this to work.

I HATE workaround replies, and that is what I am offering here. But if you really need this for your design, it might solve your problem.

If you need help setting that up, we could set up a Zoom call and you could share your screen.

I hope that helps.

If you don't mind it not being parametric, you can model it yourself with slabs, exactly as you want it.

Then use Library Part Maker you create a door or window object.

You could also just save it as a custom door or window object, but LPM gives you some extra options regarding level of detail and 2D representation.

As I said, not parametric, but its free.

The new Multipanel Sliding Door can do this. It can be found under "Special Doors".

The leafs are all move independantly which can be a bit annoying when you are wanting to show them open in 3D, but closed in elevations and sections....

Thank you Ling. Didn't have the newer library loaded due to an older file setup.
