Hello:

I need to make reverse doors in an Architectural Desktop 2006 file.

Right now I am using regular doors. The problem is that when I apply room-based Door-Tags, ADT automatically names the door with the space number into which the door opens.

Although this is the norm and correct for most of the doors, I have a couple of them that are reversed, and I need to name them with the correct space number. ADT won't even allow me to overwrite the attribute and I don't want to explode the thing.

Thanks

they won't mirror in their attributes then or perhaps rotate??

If you are using Door Tags-Project Based you can do the following:
(I am assuming you are using projects)
Go to the construct in which you placed the door. If the door has a Door Tag-Project Based attached to it you will see a Property Location Marker when you highlight it. It looks different than other markers, it is a spline type line with a star looking marker. Just drag it to the room you want and it will reassociate.

no idea where we're going to file it though :?
