    Allen,

    I use invisible instead of doorways because I'm breaking the railing. Then I then use a doorway to make the opening it has to go the entire length of the railing segment. I get the occasional double embedded column, or the doorway shrinks itself - making the opening invisible eliminates an entity, and thus eliminates something that can misbehave.

    I wrote code in 1984 to make my Sinclair 100 - so I used to be a programmer! So I can say with authority how easy it is to program Chief features! ;-)
