Sliding Door Configuration

[JMA_Team]

I want my Vectorworks sliding door symbol to look like the image attached. How do I achieve this? Any advice is appreciated.

You can use 'Windoor' to achieve that...which became available in VW 2022, so if you have an earlier version you would have to suck it up and make a custom door...which is a royal pain :-). To install Windoor in VW 2022 it is done through the 'Help' Menu item: "Install Partner Products"

Then you place the door in the wall and use the door option for "Parallel Door System'( right or left) and select how many doors you want within the opening, and Voila!

I highly recommend installing Windoor

If you're using Vw2023 you can now do this using the standard Door Tool, without using WinDoor.

 

 

On the Door Setting General tab: Select 'Sliding' configuration, 'Multiple' operation and set your desired Leaf Number:

Good to know...I have not migrated to 2023 as yet. So...another good option to procure what JMA-Team wanted to do.
