How can I add shading scenarios for Parametric Simulation in VE2024?
Download PDF Version of Answer
The new Parametric Simulation feature in IES VE2024 allows multiple shading scenarios to be created and added as a variable.
The scenarios can be added through a new grouping scheme called ‘Shading Schemes’. All types of shading elements modelled in ModelIT is automatically grouped as the Active (Red group colour) and the rest of the model grouped as Not in Shading scheme (Yellow group colour).
The Shading scenario 1 is a default scenario. Users can add other scenarios by selecting the Active scheme first in the Create and edit space groups dialog > then adding new groups which will be created under the Active shading scheme.
Users can now add the shading elements into the appropriate scenario groupings.
These then can be added to the parametric simulation’s Shading scenario
