Hello All,

I'm having a hard time in figuring or even if there is way for my bifold and pivot doors to be open in plan, and have the bifold and pivots doors closed in elevations.  Is that even possible?

Thanks!

In the door family plan select the 3D door panel and go to Modify Tab/Mode/Visibility Settings. Untick the visibility option for the plan view but ensure the visibility option for the elevation view is turned on. Now in plan add in symbolic 2D lines to represent the door open in plan. Adding masked regions where the door panel would be in plan will stop the floor / threshold beyond from showing in plan.
