Dear Trnsys users, I've recently used the TRNSYS3D sketchup plugin because I wanted to study a closed atrium in a building, and I wanted to see the influence of the detailled model of radiation, and use the multiple nodes function. Well... The least I can say is that it is a real pain in the... I quit, I cannot get it to work, the drawings in sketchup starts to look like nothing, I've lost for no reason multiple walls that became regular skecthup surfaces, When I import my model in TRnbuild, some adjacencies disappeared... And so on. I'm lost with my multiple saves; I've got a plugin error every time I open a model... I've tried to be the most meticulous while drawing, drew each zone apart and then moved it to its right place, did not use the matching surface tool... I tried a very simple model, and it worked, but I see that when the drawing's too complicated either i'm not enough skilled, either it's inadequate. Does somedy manage to be really efficient with that tool? At the present time I cannot imagine someone drawing faster than somebody used to enter values in Trnbuild! ...Which was actually the aim of defining the geometry in a CAD software... If yes, then what is the learning curve, and how many hours do you think it takes to master? Any references? Thanks in advance.
