Even though the door looks fine in the 3D View, for the details part is not done yet.

This is what it looked like in plan view if I import the door that was created in my plan.


This looks very wrong, so let's continue to edit the door. First, head to the reference level and select this two lines. Then, go to the properties panel> Visibility/Graphics


Then, this will appear and disable the Plan/RCP and When cut in Plan/RCP ( if category permits).

And now, this is how it looks like now if we load in the project.

We need to create a proper arc for the door and panels drawing. So, create a new reference plane at the right side> annotate> aligned( dimensions ) > label as leaf thickness


Create a horizontal line at the end of the vertical line created but leave a bit gap. This is what it roughly looks like when constructing. Then, Aligned > Label that line as Open.

Next, go to Family Types> Formula Row and key in a Formula for Open. The formula I created is Width- (Inner Frame Width x 2 ) .In this case, we are secured with the dimensions of the Door panels as it will always change according to the dimensions we set.

Continue on with using Pick Lines> click on the reference plan created previously > Trim extras> Annotation> Symbolic Lines > Arch ( to create door swing ). I also wanted the middle to be a glass panel, so I go Extrusion> Rectangle> lock> Properties tab> Material/graphics> Glass . Finally this is how it looks like in plan and 3D View.
