<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I actually don’t want to change much to the model itself, I just want to give different properties to materials (or change components) in different times of the year. Let’s say, I want to
use a type of skylight in winter that’s different from the one I use in summer, by changing the model of the skylight or some of its main parameters. Do you think this might be possible? Maybe adding some external script?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">The reason why I started using it is because of its feature of managing skylight properties: for a research project I’d like to simulate an “ideal skylight” solution, which could
basically adapt its main properties (VLT and SHGC) in order to minimize building energy consumption. I’ve seen there’s a very interesting “parametric run” tool, which can make me able to perform simulations with different values of these parameters.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">My question is: does E-quest support the possibility of writing a function which changes this values over the run itself with a rule set by the user? Or, at least, can I set different
values at different times of the day?<o:p></o:p></p>
