Hi! I am a beginner and need some help
I use architectural template, when I try to insert a family file (only with glass materials; doors, walls.. etc.) to my floor plans or 3d view, I get this error all the time: "Can't create this kind of element in this view in the current mode." I attached a file that I have tried. Thanks!

how are you trying to use that door? from what i can tell it has no Frame and no Opening. are you placing it into a Curtain wall?
update: in playing with it, it seems to work in a curtain wall. if that is your intent, place an elevation or section, select the panel you want to be a door and swoop out the panel.

This is a curtain panel door.
It's different than the usual doors.
You should select a panel in the curtain wall then change the type to the door.

If you go to New --> Family, you will see you have different types of door templates, this is the curtain wall door type. You can also check in Family Category and Parameters in the family.
Difference Door family templates
First of all, THANK YOU. I had no idea that I had to edit type of the curtain wall and switch the panel into family of the glass door. It's done now, I was about to cry!!!!
yes there are different family templates for curtain wall doors. there was nothing in the family that i saw, besides how it looked, saying that is what it was. but that is to point out to those that don't know about them. ![]()
