Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Window5 data file

[Rob Hitchcock <RJHitchcock@xxxxxxx>]

No warnings are generated for the case where internal windows (or other 
surfaces) do not have reversed layer order for opposite sides of the 
surface.  However, layer orders should be reversed for interzone 
windows, whether they are input directly in the IDF or by import from a 
WINDOW5 data file.  Of course if the window construction only consists 
of a single layer, or if the layers are symmetrical, this does not matter.
