[TRNSYS-users] Editing TRNSYS 3D buildings

[hotline]

Dear Brian,

just use the export function. It'll create an IDF file from your opened B7 file. The update function is for older files only, when not all information required for writing an IDF file were stored in the B17 file.

Attached you can find a short tutorial on how to import, export and reimport a 3D building project.

Best
Jakob

Betreff: [TRNSYS-users] Editing TRNSYS 3D buildings

Hello,
After creating a multizone building using TRNSYS3d (in SketchUp Make 2016) and successfully linking to it in Sim Studio, I can't figure out how to edit the building in TRNSYS3d (i.e. create a new .idf file)  and have my existing Sim Studio model (looking for _b17.idf and .b17) see the new building.

The "Update TRNSYS3D file" option in TRNBuild is grayed out.

Any hints?

Thanks,
Brian
