RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Glass Overhang Optical Properties

The overhang and fin features can already have reduced
transmittance -- they work to reduce or increase (from opaque) solar heat
gain onto the facade.  They are not interior features (which is what
I thought you wanted).

One just uses a transmittance schedule (can be seasonal) for
them.
