[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Multi-sided (>4) surfaces in VoloView



Linda,

Yes please, if there is anyone out there who could tell Linda how to 
make a polygon face in DXF commands, it would be much appreciated. 
I, and many others(?), am planning on using many DXF images in 
reports and it would be great if this problem could be overcome 
because the images are much more self-explanatory if they accurately 
represent the modeled building. It is also more difficult to 
diagnose building description problems without clear DXF images.

Regards,
Mike Wassmer
