It seems like it's a permissions issue. We saw this a couple times before. We sent you the step by step solution by email.

Let us know how it works out.

Meet the new FlexDoor Glass component!

Now you can easily create different dynamic glass doors with additional panels and multiple muntin distributions. The detailed documentation is in the works.

So cool! Thanks!

...did you guys had a look to the bug that I reported some time ago, about componentfinder including objects in folders different from the selected?

Yes, we'll try to have this fixed in the next ComponentFinder update.

UN bonus serait d'avoir dans le arch window une possibilité paramétrable d'entourage de l'arc (voir capture)
Je ne sais pas si c'est une tannée de programmation.

Maybe cheat with a texture ?

Even by default, it's not so bad!
Separate for have more size acceptable (no made here!

Maybe this will work.

I took two arch components, and placed one in the other.

The outer is a wallcutter. The inner is marked with 'Exclude' in the wallcutter options window so it won't interfere with cutting an opening.

For the outer arch I deleted the glass, and did un-hide for the lines to get the stone appearance. A shortcut for doing this is to un-hide only for the left most 'stone'. Delete all the other stones and refresh. Then the left most stone copies it self all around.

The inner window is a regular arch window scaled to the right position.

The whole component as a whole won't scale together but you can always re-scale the inner component so it fits again.

You will then need to add the horizontal lines on the sides...

It's a quick solution for now. We'll see if we can make something like this in future updates...

Please add/vote for this idea at https://flextools.cc/idea-push - There is a similar idea there which actually sparked the creation of the arch window!

Oui.. un peu long comme mise en oeuvre tout ça.
De mon coté j'avais recréé une arche avec l'outil décalage, fermée avec même diamètre et même nombre de segments (nombre impair pour la clé de voute) juste au-dessus de mon composant puis utilisé le plugin Split tool pour l'appareillage qui s'adapte aux segments
En dernière étape si je veux que l'appareillage soit saillant du nu du mur: un Fredo's Joint push pull pour l'extrusion de toutes les pierres ou au choix une par une.
D'ailleurs au moment de ce dernier l'application a sauté, je me demande si ce n'est pas un conflit entre Joint push pull et Split view?
C'est une méthode aussi trop longue, le but de ma question s'adressait au dévellopeur de Flex s'il imaginait pouvoir rajouter la fonction à l'Archwindow (qui est déjà très pratique)
