[EnergyPlus_Support] Suggestion for glare index reporting

["carlosochoam" <carlosochoam@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

I have been simulating the influence of dynamic shading devices on 
overall electrical consumption, using monthly data reporting. 

As might have been expected, when using the control "shading device on 
if high glare", the electrical consumption for lighting rose. But the 
reported DGI's are averaged, so absolute numbers are well below the 
index that triggered the control.

Therefore, as a suggestion, would it be possible to include a reporting 
variable that indicates when daylight glare index was not met, as well 
as the maximum glare index?

Thanks,

Carlos
