Stacked doors/openings in the same location/layer/wall

[Keith W]

I'm doing plans for a split-level house. The way the stairs strike the various layers, there's at least one place where I need two partial doors (one for the top of one stair door, and the other for the bottom of the other). No matter what layer owns walls, etc, I have this problem. How does one do that? I think it would work the same for windows, though I think I need doors since I need something that breaks the top and bottom edges of the wall...

Alternatively, I suppose I could just cut holes in the wall. Suggestions?

Take a look at the Notch Walls movie on this page.

It should give you the idea of what you need to do for either doors or windows.

Cool! I don't know if I even need to look at it (I will though): just realizing/noting that I can notch walls as 3-D objects gets me set up. I find myself cautious about messing with walls too much, worried that I might mess up their magicness...
