    Dutch Doors

    Anyone know how to create a dutch door? These are the doors that break in the middle with 2 sections, so that you can open or close either the top half or the bottom half independently, and they have a slide hasp that locks the two sections together so it can be used like a normal door. I have HD Pro. Thanks!!

    You can either stack two doors on top of each other and suppress the Casing and Sill (then manually add Closed box shapes from the Library Browser to manually create the casing around the door) . . .

    OR, you could also see about importing a door symbol from an outside source, like Google's 3D Warehouse, and manually place it in to a Doorway (you'll have to hold down the Control key on the keyboard to move the symbol in to place within the Doorway opening).

    Article Number 888: How to import a 3D symbol from an outside source

    Here's an example of both methods.
