Arch Top Pocket Door

Does anyone have a work around to create a pocket door with an arched top?

If you use a void you can't get the wall to cut an arch at the top.

If you use an opening you can't get the pocket for the door.

You can't have a void and an opening in the same family.

 

To clarify it is a rectangular pocket door with an arch top opening.

Huh? Sounds like this is about an Opening and a Void both not being able to cut the Host Wall in the Family.   Am I right? 

 

Don't cut the Host Wall in the Family with both an Opening and a Void. Leave Void unattached and check cut's with Void when Loaded and cut it manually in Project using Cut Geometry  -- or delete the Opening and cut the Host Wall with 2 Voids.

You can definitely accomplish this with 2 voids as @barthbradley said.

See attached family template you can use as a starting point.

Sure you can use a void or multiple voids to cut the wall with an arch at the top AND the slot in the wall cavity for the door to pocket in.
