make door out of window

Anonymous

Hello Everyone,

I have a big sliding door 2000 x 4000 mm (Each blade is 2000x2000), one slides behind the other. I am making a lot of models of small houses in one file. Now when I make lists I notice that I have used a window... that means that it shows up under the window list... Is it possible to somehow change something so that the lists read it to the doors list? I want to do this on several places at once as I use the window (that is actually a door) on a lot of places in my file.

Thankful for all input!

Thank you.

Hi there,

An easy solution is to set the element classification of the window to 'Door' which can be found within the Window Selection Settings>Categories and Properties (AC20) Tags and Categories (AC19 and previous)

Then within the Scheme Settings of the schedule instead of using Element Type is... Use Element Classification is Door. That way the schedule will combine both the window and door elements into one schedule.

Here is a link to two screenshot which explain the above -
