open doors in 3D rendering

[Jean]

Is it possible to have the doors open in a 3D view?

Hello Jean.

YES. open the door specifications box for the door you want opened. go to the options tab, and check "draw open" in the 3D display section. it will show as open according to the plan swing angle

Thank you! I styared at that page - don't know how I missed that box!

I just did one the other day.
Bi-folds don't work though..

Yep. I always show doors open when I show a floor overview to a client....sometimes for an interior rendering or raytrace.

True though - BiFold doors don't show open....also pocket doors show open - but the door panel is all the way in the wall, I would prefer them to be partially opened so you can see the slab in the view....
