Hi guys,

I'm developing a door  and I wanted it to be possible to have a parameter that would enable me to establish the angle at which the door opens in 3D.  It was fairly easy to do that using a reference line and an angle parameter and locking the pivot point of rotation. Now I seem to have a problem, even though the door width is locked to a parameter, if I change the angle to 0 or any other angel, the door leaf changes width and becomes bigger than the established parameter. The door is saved at 45 degrees and at this angle it works perfectly, its all the other angles that are giving me problems!! Could anyone help me?

Thanks

(I've attached some images so you can see the problem)

You are doing something wrong, I created this one few years ago, take a look: http://www.revitcity.com/downloads.php?action=view&object_id=9052

Thanks, I had a look!! We have a slight difference and I think thats what might be the problem, our pivot point is not at the wall corner, have a look, I attached an image.

Thanks! (Valeu ai!! A sua porta esta impecavel mas a minha deve ter algum problema com a caixilharia!)

You must assign same parameter of the swing as door opening without frame.

It's work smoothly in my family

Thanks, but I already did that, the problem is even after doing that, when it rotates it  changes the width of the leaf!!

Guys, Thanks but just solved it, the door extrusion was made in elevation rather than in plan, that was the problem!! Perfect Now!!!
