Doors across two locations

[jc30003]

Is it possible to draw doors across two locations (floors)? My basement is partially above the ground and stairs to the first floor are inside the building. Therefore the main external doors span across two locations - basement (above the ground level) and first floor (below floor level).

Yes, in this 3 image have I use walls of glass so You can see the structure, I have only use to  location basement and ground level whit droop down ext. walls. To the stair I have use 914mm Wide Fold-Back Right Stairs, Notched Stringer, 8' Landing. You have to cut a openings in the floor, in this example have I used walls then I deleted the floor inside the stair case on the 1 floor. The door have I raised the level, from the orignal level in the basment, so the door is on 0 level. Delete the trim on the ext. wall in the stair case.

hope this will help You

I too have been trying to come up with a method to draw/depict a 'Split Entry' home. Still is a work in progress. Should be possible but I still haven't found the 'best way'.

In the attached I've tried Turning off the automatic floor feature. With a manually inserted main floor I find it easier to cut the floor out around the stair well opening inside the walls and around the Entry door frame. I find I need to leave the floor in the outside wall (on both sides of the door) to avoid leaving a gap between the 'kneewall' and the main floor wall on either side of the entry door.

Haven't yet tried a dedicated 13' wall set on/at the kneewall level just for the Split Entry exterior wall. Don't yet know what trouble that will cause with the exterior finish.

I'm new at this so I don't have any solutions just some different possibilities.
