Arched Passthrough

[victoriahayden]

Does anyone know how to create an arched passthrough? A passthrought is like an indoor window without the glass. I've tried to create a doorway, but cannot elevate the bottom of the door way to have the bottom wall. Nor did trying to add a window to the interior wall.

If you have a solution or an alternative method, please reply.

Hello victoria,

Why didn't the window work? (see attached)
Did you check for items in your Library? How about looking under Fixtures(Exterior) then Landscape Fixtures, then Arbors & Arches, then Arch?

It will be very helpful to all of us if you would enter the Name of your BH&G product and the Version in your Signature.

Not knowing which BHG product you are using, I will have to make an assumption that you have the same or similar default library browser items as Home Designer Pro.

Article Number 44: How to create a pass-through

There are two methods for creating the "pass through".

1. Use Windows/Single Units/Arched; but you will need to change the glass to standard.

To avoid the glass issue in your pass through you can use the following:

2. Doorways/Wrapped openings/ Ellipse (trim) or Round Top (trim); then drag the bottom of the door upward from the floor till you have the height that you want.

You can NOT drop an exterior archway into a wall; thereby making it a viable option would not be beneficial.
