[TRNSYS-users] Import EnergyPlus idf file

[David BRADLEY]

Yu-Wei,

  As far as I know, there is no way to import an EnergyPlus *.idf into 
TRNBuild. The legacy OpenStudio plugin to SketchUp used a very narrow 
portion of the *.idf file format and since Trnsys3d is built on the 
legacy OpenStudio plugin, we used the same for importing geometry and 
very basic default wall constructions into TRNBuild.

kind regards,

  David
