To Insert Doors and Windows Centered between Grid Lines

You can insert a door or window in a wall at the center between two grid lines.

Inserting windows at the center between two grid lines

  1. Select the wall on which you want to insert doors or windows centered on a grid line.
  2. Click one of these commands:
    • Click Wall tab General Panel Door drop-down Center between Grid Lines.
    • Click Wall tab General Panel Window drop-down Center between Grid Lines.
  3. Verify that on the Properties palette the Relative to Grid setting is set to Yes.
  4. Verify that on the Properties palette the Position setting is set to Center.
    Note: If you set the Position setting to Center and the Relative to Grid setting to None, the insertion behavior will be equivalent to the legacy Position along wall=Center setting. The first door or window will be placed on the center of the wall, and the next door or window will be centered between the first one and the end of the wall.
  5. Use the onscreen preview to place the door or window centered between two grid lines.
  6. Place as many doors or windows as you need and then press Enter.
