Curtain Wall Door Swing - one shows - one doesn't

Rene Pahlavan
Booster

Hi All--

 

Been searching everywhere and reading all the related posts I can, but still no answers - trying to understand why only one door in my curtain wall is showing as open. When I created the wall both doors were showing the swings, but for some reason one shows as closed now in plan and I can not get it to show open (Opening Lines 2D Override is activated (screenshot attached) - but not affecting the door in plan view). Settings the same for both doors - but only one showing swing now. Cut plans are obviously not the issue. Please see the screenshot attached with red highlight around the two door panels. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hello René,

 

I cannot reproduce this scenario. Could you share a mod file of this curtain wall so that I can find a solution ?

Hi

 

is 2D Opening Angle set to 90°?

Yes of course. The only setting different than the other CW Door is the Opening Type being set to Tilt-Turn Mirrored (so it opens RH instead of LH).

Hi Christophe--

 

Unable to attach mod file here (only jpg, png, etc. allowed). Would you like me to DM it to you?

I understand but perhaps can you share me a wetransfer link ?

I certainly can, but I think I need an e-mail address to share it to.

I just wanted to be sure, sometimes is the simplest solution overlooked. More light will bring up your file. You can zip Archicad file and attach it. Zip files are alloved as attachments (max 5MB).

Sorry Lukas if I came off sounding annoyed - certainly don't mean that and I am grateful for your help. You are right, often the simplest solution is overlooked. I have been struggling with this for several days now and trying to find the solution on my own. I have scoured the forums here and even posted the problem on a Facebook group - to no avail. Quite frustrating to say the least. I am afraid that the zip file version is coming in at 44.4 MB - i.e. too large to post as an attachment.

It didn't sound annyed at all, don't worry. If the file is too large, you can save only problematic element yby selecting it and then go:

Or simple go for example to https://wetransfer.com/

and select:

instead of send email. You can than copy link in to the forum.
