<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>You can use overhangs, accessible from the Fins – Overhang tab in
the window properties. You can only create one overhang per window. You can
also create as many building shades as you want (or have the patience for). If
you want to model multiple shades over a window, I find it easier to create an
overhang first, then add building shades (as in the screen shot below). With
building shades, you can adjust the solar transmittance, allowing a portion of
light to pass through.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
