10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Thanks Scott. I have been using it on
occasion with single story buildings to generate multiple level spaces within
shells. That way I can have some rooms that go from floor to structure
and others with plenums above as part of the same shell. Without it, I
have to pick whether to generate plenums everywhere and delete the ones I don’t
need (and subsequently re-size exterior walls) or add them only where I need
them (create new spaces and assign them as plenums).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=black face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>How the eQUEST wizards handle the display and use of
this value is somewhat simplified at this point, until we can get back around
to more effectively handling scenarios where an atrium space spans multiple
stacked shells. The plan originally was to display (and use) the
"Conditioned Height" field only if this zone did not lie above a
multi-level zone in a shell below, but since we never fully implemented that
capability the simplified defaulting is preventing this field from being
displayed anytime the model has shells with a lower elevation (Z coordinate)
than the shell which this custom (multi-level) zone is defined in.<br>
