need to change some values (Tvis) in the equest glass library for a
particular glass type code (2800, 2801). I tried to change this in the BDL
file for the particular project, but it appears that inp and bdl file are
reading from a central location, and the changes I make are replaced by the
library default values when I run the simulation. I cannot use the Windows 5
route as the glass type I am trying to modify is an electrochromic glass and
hence only glass types from the glass library can be used. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
