Does anyone know how to make a Findoor?

I believe you could use a multi-slide or folding door to represent that. It may be faster to make the findoor with pieces, or bifold doors and then either save a model of the actual door panels how you want them and use them as a 3D model in conjunction with the door opening you create. First step would be to create the elevation opening to represent the door panel you want and experiment from there.

Thank you.  I used a face sliding door. That will work for all I need now.

I wish I could draw this as a bi-fold, which is really what it is.

You can.  Keith did a great post on making doors.  I fooled around with this for a quick minute just to see how it would go.  It got a little tricky with the sections, LR, etc.... But there is hope and you get the idea.  You can make it any size you want, with openings and so on. This is a picture of what I did in 5 minutes.  But you can get it right for you.

Thank you. I will use the face sliding door. I need a Findoor that can have a clear opening of 40'.
