Xavier,
   Thanks for reporting both of these issues.

>1. When a *.bui file is modified to add a new zone, and non standard

>which may cause errors in the downflow calculatuions using these outputs.

I assume that you performed an "update building variable list" by right 
clicking on the Type56 icon once you returned to the Studio after having 
modified your building in TRNBuild.   A little more information would be 
helpful to us in tracking down the source of the problem. When you get this 
error, could you please check the contents of the *.bui file to make sure 
that it contains the correct list of outputs and also check the *.inf file 
that TRNBuild creates and make sure that it too has the correct list of 
outputs? Both of these files are text files and can be opened with Notepad. 
What I am trying to assess is whether the problem lies in writing the *.bui 
and *.inf after adding the zone or whether the problem lies in reading the 
files on the Studio side.

>2. The window ID 7401 from the TESS libraries produces a warning in the 
>Studio with wrong tao_visible and emisivity.

thanks, I will check that.

Kind regards,
   david
