Description
I want to show a Double Door on a curved Curtain Wall Panel, however there is a limitation as I can’t delete the central frame in Edit Mode to merge two panels before inserting the Double Door. I had to create two-single swing doors as a workaround but,I could not get the right door to hang on the right side.
Solution
On a curved Panel System, merging two-panels to create a Double Door is limited as panels have different angle values. Since the Curtain Wall is segmented along the curve, the frame can't be eliminated. It is only possible to delete a frame between two segments that are at the same plane.
Instead, 2 panels should be converted to a single swing door then adjust the swing orientation accordingly to achieve the correct graphical representation on plan.
In the 3D View select your curtain wall and click on Edit to enable Edit Mode.
-
Select the panels you want to convert into a Double Door.
Select two Panels and delete the Mullion that divides them.
Open the Curtain Wall - Panel Selection Settings.
-
On the Custom Panel Type and Geometry, select CW Door to convert the panel to a door.
To correct the graphical representation, select the right door then open Curtain Wall - Panel Selection Settings again.
-
Under Door Settings and Opening.. set the Opening Type to Side Hung Mirrored.
-
Click OK to close the Curtain Wall Settings.
