Door Tool

Insert doors into your walls: they are placed on the floor and the opening is cut automatically.

How it works

  1. Choose a door in the library, or build one with the windows configurator
  2. Hover a vertical wall face: the door is set at the bottom of the face and its distances to the wall edges are displayed
  3. Click to insert the door, the opening is cut in the wall
  4. Double click: after a first insertion, a pink marker proposes the same horizontal distance from the reference corner; double click to place the next door there

Keys

  • Option (Mac), Ctrl (PC) = Flip the orientation (opening direction)
  • Shift = Lock / unlock the reference corner of the hovered face
  • Esc = Cancel the operation

Input (VCB)

  • Not hovering a face: type the reveal depth then Enter
  • Hovering a face: type the horizontal distance then Enter to place it exactly from the reference corner (vertical distance is forced to 0)

Tips

  • Distances to the wall edges are displayed in real time (red: distances to the reference corner, black: remaining dimensions)
  • A black dot marks the reference corner, a red dot means it is locked
  • The cursor shows whether insertion is possible, impossible, or will replace an existing element
  • Click on an existing element to replace it with the selected model: its position, attributes and tag are kept
  • New doors are placed on the "Joinery" tag
  • The toolbar button reopens the last picker used (library or windows configurator)
  • No need to press Shift to type values: just type them (Shift locks the reference corner)
