Door with two panels
I am creating a door with two panels. What I did:
I placed a door from the standard catalog at location (0,0) and saved the plan as obj-file. This way I had the door with its two files (obj and mtl).
Manually I changed the vertices of the frame so it has the desired width, height and depth. I placed this changed door in a plan and it look as expected. The frame with the new size, the rest at its original location.
I changed the material for the hinges to better identify them in the 3D View.
Now I used Blender to remove the middle hinge, move the hinges, panel and handles to the left side. Duplicated them and moved them to the left side. All looks correct in Blender.
I added the door to a furniture library and after investigation of the property file for the door library created by Keet I changed the property file of my own library.
Adding the door to a plan the door is shown as expected. I also can open the two panels individually.

Now two points are open:
1. When I move the door to place it in the wall with the right thickness the door will snap into the wall but with closed doors there is no cutout of the wall.

2. I could add a sash definition for one panel. I don't know how to add a second sash for the other panel. I haven't found a description of the allowed keywords for the property file.
