Is it possible to modify a door sill's height above top of subfloor? I know that there is a sill option under System Options -> Material Options -> Opening Options but I do not see an option to locate. Plus, I do not know if that will affect sills for door and windows both if I change it.

 

Thank you,

Edit the door, and change it's offset. The sill will move with it.

Doesn't that mean that the door will move also? I don't want the door to change location only the sill if possible. If I can't do that then I'll just cut off the sill altogether and draw one in sketchup and make a symbol out of it. I've gotten pretty good at that. :)

But physically how can you raise the sill, and NOT raise the door. If it's the door head your worried about, just make the door shorter. So take 1" off the door height and raise it up 1". The other option is omit the sill and draw a solid in it's place. That will be much quicker than sketchup.

 

Not sure what you are trying to achieve here.
