Dear all,

we are using window 7 in command line mode to generate BSDF and XML-files for a glazing system with diffusing shade on outside.

In our *xml, the shading layer is generated like following:

<ShadeLayer Id="30004" Name="TEST_SHD" Type="1" ShadeMaterialId="50004" HoleArea="0.04" BSDFpath="" ConvectionFactor="0"/>

In W7.4 the shading is generated as desired.If we call the same *.xml with W7.6, the permeability factor is zero. Has the key value for permeability/HoleArea been changed in W7.6?

thanks,
Christoph

I am checking with the programmers but I believe that HoleArea is no longer used and PermeabilityFactor has replaced it. But I need to check if that is the case, and also if the command line "world" supports that change.
