Re: BiFold Doors in frame
There are two problems with your bidold doors.
1 - The door frame doesn't have a "bottom", therefor it's open and the wall will fill the cavity it should cut out of the wall. 2 - In the OBJ file, the door frame and doors are not described as separate entities, therefor the door will flatten when inserted into a wall.
The solution for the first problem is simple. Insert the door into your wall using the arrow keys, not the mouse. This prevents the doors from flattening. See attached file. The second problem can be solved as well, but is more tricky. You have to delve into the object properties and change a few things. To be honest, I'm too lazy to find out how and where, but the information can be found in the forum.
