Hi -

We have followed the step-by-step process 'Exporting From SketchUp' as
outlined in Section 4.1.1 (pg 32) of the 'DAYSIM 2.1 Tutorial' dated
April 27, 2006.  We are using Sketchup v. 7 and DAYSIM v. 3.0 (beta).

We created a simple one-room 20'x20'x10'h model w/ 1 window in SketchUp
(no layers).  We then attempted to export the model into a .rif file
using the su2rad_daysim_r03 plugin.

We have had trouble loading the .rif file into DAYSIM.  We get an error
message (see attachment or below).

Is there an update to the procedure specific to DAYSIM v.3  that we are
not aware of?
