<p>Toni,</p>
<p> I was able to add a winter garden like the one in your picture.
I had a little trouble in that I was forced to manually specify
the construction of the windows on both the winter garden side and
on the apartments side as being ADJ_WINDOW. As a side note, don't
forget to draw the vertical lines that split the back side of the
winter garden into four walls (one each adjacent with the
apartments) and also don't forget to set the floor of the winter
garden to be an external surface adjacent to outdoors; it's
default is a GROUND_FLOOR which will give it an incorrect boundary
temperature.<br>
</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>
<p> David</p>
