      All surfaces are given names.<br>
      When a surface is created in TRNSYS3D, it is automatically given
      an alphanumeric name, for example A0737D.<br>
      <p>In contrast, TRNBuild identifies all surfaces by number.
        Therefore, when the IDF is imported into TRNBuild, it is
        assigned a surface number instead of the name.</p>
      <p>Thereafter, when exporting from TRNBuild to an IDF, the surface
        number will be used as the name.</p>
      <p>In your case, it seems that TRNBuild did not export the surface
        (210) to the IDF correctly.<br>
        Or the surface may be so small that it is not visible.<br>
        <br>
        If you are having difficulty finding the surface, I recommend
        that you delete and recreate the zone to which the surface
        belongs.</p>

            <p>Surface numbers are assigned by TRNBuild.<br>
              In other words, you cannot find the surface by the number
              because it does not exist in TRNSYS3D.<br>
              <br>
              Try the following steps.<br>
              <br>
              1. First of all, export the IDF file from TRNBuild. This
              will export the surface numbers assigned by TRNBuild to
              the IDF file.<br>
              2. Then open the IDF file in TRNSYS3D.<br>
              3. In the Surface Search dialog, enter the Surface number
              in the Name field. In your case, enter 210.<br>
              4. Click on the Search Entire Model button. <br>
            </p>
            <p>Now only the surface will be shown.</p>
