<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">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. <br clear="all">
