PitchSlope=90.0, bad automatic reset

[heilubke]

Hi

i am modelling a system with fixed tilt sheds where the *.shd file insists to add a parameter "PitchSlope=90.0", the shed-to-shed slope (it's a parameter of the PV_Object pvShdArraySunShield).

 

• If i manually replace the value to "PitchSlope=0.0" in the *.shd file, the model opens just fine.

• After i close the variant and save it the parameter disappears in the *.shd file.

• When i open the model again and start the near shading module, all sheds are "stacked" with the 90° slope. If i save again, the above mentioned parameter appears again.

 

This happened in one other model i did some time ago but i cancelled the project and discarded it. So i ignored. It did not appear in the ~15 other projects i modelled in between...

I am using plain ground with a ground image (*.pgn) (no ground model) and no pitch slope actually.

I'd appreciate some help because it was a nasty piece of work to place the sheds in this one...
