Door disappears in mirroring script

[tabeertariq]

I am trying to mirror a door on a wall, and I am facing problems.

1. When I bring in the door family, dynamo only is showing the door frame and not the door itself. Why is that? This effects my script later i think. Images are attached below.
   

   
   
   
   

2. Second Problem is that when i mirror this, only the door frame gets mirrored. It does not create a new opening in the wall and is not showing the door either.
   

   
   
   
   

My main goals is to mirror the existing brown door to the new location and remove the old doors. Can anyone guide on how to do this correctly?

Hi @tabeertariq arha now i find out, sorry you could try element mirror from clockwork, but last time i try it wasnt so stable with cut, another you could try is just ootb move by vector, may be

You’re encountering this issue because in Revit, you can’t mirror hosted elements like doors or windows directly through Dynamo unless you handle the host properly. Instead, you should mirror the host wall only—the hosted elements (like the door or window) will automatically mirror along with it.

So in your case, try mirroring the wall, and the door should follow correctly.

true we can flip and move , copy, as far i know,probably wrong,thats why in this case here i just wanna move and then flip should give a kind of mirror

By chance is the door leaf a shared nested component? If so it wont show as its another element even if nested into the family.
