<br>
We're hitting a few snags when importing a gbXML from a large Revit model into
IES with respect to the following issues:</span></font></p>
<ul type=disc>
<li class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Bringing all missing surface areas down to zero
(during model checking) </span></font></li>
<li class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Bringing sunshades (on curtain walls) with
horizontal cylindrical tubes in them in. Vertical fin sunshades on punched
openings are importing fine.</span></font></li>
<li class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Bringing all curtain wall glazing in as
transparent panels. We checked over and over to make sure all panels
within the curtain wall are of the same type, some come in as transparent,
some come in as opaque. </span></font></li>
</ul>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>If anyone has dealt with and overcome these issues, pointers are highly
appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
