Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] DXF output from EnergyPlus 6.0

[Elmer Morrissey <elmer.morrissey@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've attached two screen captures of a building I am working on. The visual studio capture shows the various external boundaries (walls, windows, etc). The DXF screen capture shows the various incorrect aspects of the DXF output. Is this anticipated and does it reflect errors in processing space boundaries?

Kind regards

-Elmer

Nothing has changed in the EnergyPlus V6 DXF file from earlier versions.

Hello,

Has anyone come across issues with the DXF when the geometry is more complex than a 'box-type' shape.

The DXF generated by EnergyPlus 6.0 is an unreadable file in simulations runs when the simulating the 'whole building'. Ultimately, it cannot be read in any CAD file.

Kind regards
