Doors depth

[kolar.jan]

Hello,

can you please advise with the following problem?

I have magnetism turned on in the preferences and when I add from the standard catalogue the "Open door" with a width 900 mm to a wall with a thickness 100 mm the depth of the door automatically changes to 906.669 mm - which could be acceptable (6.7 mm difference). But when I do the same to a wall that has thickness 250 mm the depth of the door chanes to 2266.669 mm which is totally off.

Then in the 3D overview the opened door stretches way too much into the room.

Please advise.

Jan,

This is a known problem. There is an easy solution:
1 - Locate a hatch and give it the dimensions (only width and height) of your door.
2 - Insert the hatch in your wall using the mouse. It will adapt to the thickness of your wall and create an opening.
3 - Give your door the desired dimensions.
4 - Now slide the door in your hatch, using the arrow keys on your keyboard. This will prevent the door from adapting to the wall.
