<font size="+1">I would say some of your vertices are not lining
up. Even visually I can see a few potential problem points for
you. They have to be exact. Nothing can overlap <font size="+1">nor
can there be any gaps. eQu<font size="+1">est is very picky,
you pretty much have to be ex<font size="+1">act to 3 decimal
places. It may sound<font size="+1"> like a lot of work but
I would print out you<font size="+1">r <font size="+1">CAD
plan and ma<font size="+1">rk your points on it. When
I do my perimeter I add extra points on the exterior
walls whe<font size="+1">re the zones intersect. It
<font size="+1">gives you somet<font size="+1">hing
to snap to</font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font>
<font size="+1">when you are defining your zones later. When
defining your zone polygons you can also directly edit the number
if you can't get the point to snap exactly. The only snap I use
is the CAD<font size="+1"> drawing. One other thing I do is make
an<font size="+1"> eQuest layer on the CAD drawing and simplify
the plan to the perimeter and the zones. <font size="+1">It
makes it easier in the long run to keep track o<font

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#595959">This one has me
stumped, and it looks like it’s been an issue before, so I’m
hoping someone has an idea. I was building a model in the
wizard and went to save-as before something got screwy, and
it appeared I was too late. I got an error for multiple
zones that read “MULTIPLIER in <i>XXXzone</i> has
Expression Evaluation Error: Invalid BDL reference”,
followed up by a bunch of zone errors stating that they were
“referenced but not defined”. I did some searching and came
up with a few hits, but no solutions (that I could see). I
bit the bullet and went back and tried to rezone it from my
last save, and while the error seems to occur for different
zones, I still got it. I went through and tried to purge out
some AHU’s and spaces that may have pushed me up against
some limit I’m not aware of, but nothing’s helped so far.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#595959">Below is what
I’m currently zoning, and you can see that in the building
footprint screen, there are zones that I’ve defined that
aren’t showing up. I’m attaching the pd2. Any thoughts or
ideas would be appreciated!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
