#1064 Door made invisible should leave opening

[John E. A.]

Hello,

Thanks for the great SweetHome3D!

I working on a current design, I unchecked the "visible" attribute on several doors, so that I would be able to see in from an outside view.

However, when the doors became invisible, the walls filled the whole that would be occupied by the door.

I don't want to delete the door, I just want it to be invisible in certain views.

I think an intuitive expectation would be for the whole in the wall occupied by the door to still be there, even when the door is set to be not visible.

I hope this can be integrated into an upcoming release of SweetHome3D!

Thank you...

This would require to replace the current Visible check box by two Visible in plan and Visible in 3D view check boxes. Not sure it will happen any time soon.
If you want a hole in the wall you could use an invisible box at the moment. See this tip.
