              this info is great and all, but without description and timeline it is just a passing comment

                I don't have the authority to actually announce it. But, it's exciting and I'm probably pushing up the timeline by making this thread.

                  You don't have neither the authority neither the moral ground to keep spilling that waste on this forum. Get away from here Kris! 😆

                      I am adding a number of features to Door Maker Pro and will put out a Gold version very soon. I have a beta version currently in testing.

                      I want to change some coding that deals with mullions and panels for cathedrals and arches. I also want to finish off the door jambs portion. Should be released in a couple of weeks.

                      Here are some pictures of what it can do.

                            Yeah it does... no more looking for the right door, just make the one you want on the fly.

                              Excellent! Seems like something I've been looking around for.

                                really cool plugin! would be nice if there was a pivoting hinge option (for very large doors).

                                  If you could post a sketchup file with a door and a pivoting hinge I'll take a look at it. It seems to me that you would have to make changes to the door jamb.

                                  Setting the pivot to a non 0 value for the actual door is the easy part. These doors support Interact. However I haven't figured out how to get the second part of a bifold to slide and open in conjunction with the first part just rotating through around 75 degrees.

                                    any chance of adding a door swing indication (when looking on plan view) that can go on a separate (user definable) layer?

                                        Rixson pivot hinges are commonly used in commercial construction. The head and floor need to be machined for the pivots and some times the jamb if a center hinge is required.http://www.rixson.com/pivottypes/
                                        Great plug in!

                                          I can put a direction symbol like an arc and an arrow for 2D plans.
                                          You are suggesting to put the direction information on a user defined named layer.
                                          Please provide an example of what you would like to see for a direction symbol

                                          That pivot hinge looks interesting. Looks like the door will complete clear the casings and can open 180 degrees.

                                          This pivot hinge allows a door to open both directions.

                                            I like the simple plan view for door swings, full 90 or 35/45 degrees. as for layers... it's going to be different for everyone. whatever is easy for you. I would think ANNO_DOOR would do. I don't know about other people, But I use a component system with a door symbol layer inside the door so i can turn on a symbol for the door schedule. a symbol would be nice if we're annotating.
