[EnergyPlus_Support] Warning re: window multiplier > 1

["JV Dirkes II" <jvd2pe@xxxxxxx>]

Dear Support Group,

When running a model which is almost 100% windows (a greenhouse), I
receive the following message for numerous window surfaces.  Will
someone please explain its significance in a bit more detail?  Thanks.   

** Warning ** GetHTSubSurfaceData: A Multiplier > 1.0 for window/glass
door W_7376_3_0_0_0_1
   **   ~~~   ** in conjunction with SolarDistribution = FullExterior
or FullInteriorExterior
   **   ~~~   ** can cause inaccurate shadowing on the window and/or
   **   ~~~   ** inaccurate interior solar distribution from the window.
