Doors- hinge side?

[pitpirate1]

When i place a door in my floorplan, it goes in fine but how can i change the side the hinges are on? For example I want some of them to be against a wall and the door to open against it, but when you place doors in they all face the same direction.

In other programs you can usually choose which side it opens or which side the hinges are on...but I can't find either.

thanks!

When you select the door, there is a button called "Change Opening/Hinge Side" in the edit toolbar. Or you can also use the little triangle handle that you see when you have the door selected.

This is pretty basic stuff, and it is well covered in the help files.

My version of Chief Arc is 8.0. I don't open the program but once per year for a project.

I set the door and have trouble changing the hinge side. This should be easy, and I have done it before, but now I cannot find the reference in the help files or the Button that I need to push. I have tried all that I know.

Any help in moving a door hinge side is a big help to me. I have more than 40 doors in the apartment and most are inserted in the wrong direction.

Noel,

Just drag the swing handle to the other side.
