In Detailed Edit go into the “Building Shell” module by clicking that button along the top. In the Component Tree on the left right-click on “Building Shades” and select “Create Building Shade…” Enter the dimensions in the dialog box that pops up, then on the next dialog box adjust the coordinates and tilt to place it where you want. Note that you can move the dialog box to the side (I move it to a second screen) and keep it open while you see the changes in the 3-D viewer as you go from field to field. Then I can see right away if a rotation in the wrong direction made it disappear inside the building, for example. Keep adding these shades until you have your grid. Good luck!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>________________________________</span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><ns0:PersonName><span style='color:#1F497D'>Keith Swartz</span></ns0:PersonName><span style='color:#1F497D'>, P.E., LEED AP</span></span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><br>Energy Engineer / Senior Project Manager<br></span><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><ns0:PlaceName><span style='color:#1F497D'>Energy</span></ns0:PlaceName><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><ns0:PlaceType><span style='color:#1F497D'>Center</span></ns0:PlaceType><span style='color:#1F497D'> of </span><ns0:place><ns0:State><span style='color:#1F497D'>Wisconsin</span><span style='color:#1F497D;font-weight:normal'><br></span><span style='font-weight:normal'></ns0:State></span></ns0:place></span></b><ns0:Street><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><ns0:address><span style='color:#1F497D'>455 Science Drive, Suite 200, </span></ns0:address></ns0:Street></span><ns0:place><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><ns0:City><span style='color:#1F497D'>Madison</span></ns0:City><span style='color:#1F497D'>, </span><ns0:State><span style='color:#1F497D'>WI</span></ns0:State><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><ns0:PostalCode><span style='color:#1F497D'>53711<br></span></ns0:PostalCode></ns0:place></span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Phone: 608.238.8276 x123<br>Fax: 608.238.0523<br><br></span><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>The Buildings Team</span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Design decisions through energy, economics and emissions analysis.</span></i><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.ecw.org/Buildings">www.ecw.org/Buildings</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#1F497D'><br></span><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><ns0:place><ns0:PlaceName><span style='color:#1F497D'>Energy</span></ns0:PlaceName><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><ns0:PlaceType><span style='color:#1F497D'>Center</span></ns0:PlaceType><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><ns0:PlaceType><span style='color:#1F497D'>University<br></span></ns0:PlaceType></ns0:place></span></b><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Your gateway to sustainable design training and online education programs.<br></span></i><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.ecw.org/university/" title="http://www.ecw.org/university/"><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>www.ecw.org/university/</span></a></span><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> Kristin Gustafson [mailto:kgustafson@eypae.com] <br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, October 12, 2011 8:12 AM<br><b>To:</b> equest-users@lists.onebuilding.org<br><b>Subject:</b> [Equest-users] window shading devices<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Looking for a shortcut here- <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I’ve got a building with lots of glazing, and for a typical 12’high by 24’long wall, there is a shading grid device with horizontal and vertical mullions at 2’spacing (both horiz and vert).
