Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] North Axis in EP 3.0

[Linda Lawrie <linda@xxxxxxxxxx>]

It won't work if you specify that the global geometry rules
present coordinates in "World" coordinates.  Usually, you
then also get a warning that the building and zone north axes are ignored
due to the world coordinate system.

To use those axes, you need to have "relative coordinates"
specified.
