Doors with etched glass in library

[SingletonRW]

Entry doors with etched class designs, such as in library or Marvin entry doors. When I make them a double door the etched glass is just on one door. the other door is plain glass. Is there a way to fix this.

Interesting,  why don't you post a small plan with the doors in question and somebody will look at it.

 

Seriously,  you will get an answer much quicker if you  post an example of what you are talking about.

Here's a door that it seems to work OK with.

Room 1 is with the door from library. It is a mulled unit, so I exploded it and widened the door and re-mulled it. As you can see in room 2 the second door is just plain glass. Thanks for looking at it.

Scott I like that door. Another question. How can you get the same glass in a window to use as a surround for door.

Ain't that a pistol?  I can't explain it,  but if you were to take the door with the sidelights,   explode the block,  COPY,  I SAID COPY THE DOOR,  flip it and but it up against the other door,  I think you can get what you want.

 

BTW,  always,  I said always open the window default dvx and change min. separation to 0".  I do not know why this is not a default.

Use the door as the surround and call it a window?  Turn the door into a window symbol?  I don't know for sure.

[HumbleChief]

Not sure why that's wrong but it sure is wrong.

[SingletonRW]

Thanks Scott, that works. Will play with making it a window.

Not really my specialty, but open an elevation and then...

 

1.  Explode your mulled unit

2.  Select your double door

3.  Unload Muntins (tool in lower toolbar)

4.  Select the "etched glass" section of the door (its a selectable CAD block now)

5.  Copy/Paste in Positiion

6.  Move copy over to second door

7.  Load Muntins
