Hello to all,

I am having a difficult time understanding the zoning pattern.

On the building footprint screen, custom zoning, by geometry, the
perimeter zone is calculated automatically. How can you define the areas
by type?

Also, if the zone is custom, then will the future activity allocation
screen mean anything? Do we have to set up the zoning on page 3 as
activity allocation and then use activity allocation on future screens?

If we do not use activity allocation on page 3, does this then mean that
the future screen is obsolete?

I also noticed that we have to set up the zoning before the windows.
This is a problem. Is there a way around that?

As you can see, I am pretty confused.

Thanks.

One more question regarding the rates, when I enter 2 different blocks
like when the consumption is less than 2000 Kwh, the rate is x and when
it exceeds 2000 Kwh the rate becomes y, where can i make sure that this
is on monthly basis and that during simulation, the program will start
counting from 0 Kwh once a new month starts?

Thank you

This runs fine but when I look at the sim file under LS-C or LS-F there is
no load anywhere for the roof. Has anyone come across this? Ive attached
my pd2 and inp if your bored. Ive recreated it and it shows the same thing.
