Elevators

I have an elevator in the building I am working on. I set up the story levels (basement, site, first floor, second, etc.) and I plopped in the regular elevator found in ArchiCad 11. It took the Site level as a story and shifted the works so the doors are above the floors and it left out the first floor door. I can't see where to set the story parameters except where it blocks me out from changing them. Where are the parameter adjustments to fit the object to the level configuration I have?

I posted a reply after the thread I chased. I looked on the Story and Elevator Door Position Settings dialog box and I have the Index of Story to be Edited set to the second floor, but it don't have the area in the circle that allows me to turn a door on or off on that floor.
I moved the whole object down so the second and third floors match the middle of the model but the top and bottom don't match. I can change the index story and it don't let me adjust the vertical position of the elevator door.



And I only have one door showing.


Hmm.

Thanks!

Hello,
Congratulations for GS... The "new" Stairmaker AC 12 is a fraud.......and the elevator object named elevator 2.12 bug. It worked well before on AC9

We can t do nothing with it..it is clever ..

.... I'm furious....very very bad work
the wall curtain tool is a nice tool but we have more of stair and elevator in our projects

Where are the editable hot spots in 3D ? No possibility now to put the value of the height of floor?

Thanks a lot for yours solutions
