SunCast Error: Shading File Doesn’t Match Model Fix

This error is possibly caused by the presence of openings in shading objects. This is illegal and will be rejected by SunCast. To resolve, go to ModelIT and select all adjacent buildings, topographical shades and local shades, and open ModelIT Tabular Space Data >> Space Counts tab to find these spaces with openings. Then go to the Space Basics tab and change space type to Building Space and back to the original type (adjacent building, topographical shade or local shade). This will remove openings and SunCast will run with no error.
