    Doorway Problem

    I have a two interior walls that meet at 45' in a room. I want to place a doorway/opening in the middle/across where the two walls meet, ie half of the opening would follow one wall and the other follow the other wall. Any ideas would be helpful thanks

    Doggone it, I wish I had a neat solution for you, but I don't. It's almost like the corner window situation where if you get a running start and jamb each doorway into the corner, you can eliminate the corner, but I have not had much success with that method lately.

    I will try again in the AM.

    The videos we watch are not 100% gold, but if we find a gold nugget, the time spent viewing has a value.

    Hey, you live in Picton, I was in Picton in February, not a bad place to live. I wish i remembered what we saw there. After a few days, the places just kind of run into each other, it was probably a hike. But I remember I liked Picton.

    Wow! Get the heck out of here Glenn, nice! Does that mean a doorway will not work but a pass-thru will?

    Thanks, the only thing I can do is to fiddle with the walls to make an opening, that's life.

    New Zealand is much better than Australia..... right? I'm trying to start a war with the Aussies....... I remember you guys down under had a great sense of humor, and there was definetly a bit of rivalry between the Aussies and the Kiwis....... unless an outsider came between the two of you, and if that was the case, you guys sided with each other. Probably the best trip I have taken, down to see the Kiwis and the Aussies, I'd do it again in a minute.

    Just be careful what you say about our friends, by the way, who are the Aussie and where do they come from, saw something on TV about the Aussies that they had all gone up in smoke, shame about that

    Essentially what Glenn said, I think this changed in X5 and I did not realize this. Much Much easier to do this now.
