Hi Vikram<div><br></div><div>Yes Hamlet did use eQuest and so did Macbeth...</div><div><br></div><div>As for the windows, I found this on the help menu, I'm sure it'll answer your question-</div><div><h4>Use of Multipliers on Windows and Exterior Walls </h4>
<p class="MsoBodyText">If an exterior wall in a daylit space has a number of
identical windows, the windows should be entered separately rather than using
<font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #3399ff" color="#ffffff">MULTIPLIER</font> (which
would give an incorrect illuminance calculation since individual windows would
not be positioned correctly on the wall). Similarly, for a daylit space, <font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #3399ff" color="#ffffff">MULTIPLIER</font> should not be
used on any exterior wall that contains a <font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #3399ff" color="#ffffff">window</font>.</p><div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div>Supriya</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div class="gmail_quote">

Hamlet <u>did</u> use eQUEST). </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The question is – when you are enabling daylight
calculations does it make a difference whether you have 20 windows next to each
other or if you just define one and use a multiplier. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I would think that it should. But I’m not really sure.
