<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">hello <st1:PersonName w:st="on">
trnsys-users</st1:PersonName>,<br>
i can not undetstand, why there is a slope difinition in the window type. slope means something about orientation. but the orientation is already descript in zone definition, isn't it? or it means each different slope should be a window type, even if everything
else are same? <br>
and I built a simple modell in sketchup with trnsys3d. when i look deeper, in the idf and b17 file, every window type has the same slope 90.<br>
i'm a little confused. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
