Wow, massive thread. I’m not even going to read it all in detail…but I’ll add a few little pointers from my workflow:
-
Sticking the door swing sybmol at the top of the door will avoid it conflicting with the Floor (when you have a floor).
-
Sticking the door swing on a tag is sensible if you want it’s own line weight… but this is one occassion where I am happy to put the swing geometry (the curved line) on its own tag
Doesnt need to be grouped or made into a component first, as it’s only a few lines. [ignore this is you’re using Flextools or DCs] -
I also get annoyed by the “rotate” widget that keeps popping up uninvited !!
But I do have a handy custom shortcut key set up for “Flip object along X” and also “Flip object along Y” . This allows me to flip and position doors, windows and other things very quickly indeed. I highly recomend it.
