Swonno Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Hello PVSyst team, I'm trying to describe range of mountain with the So I can model mountain with the width & height. But to design degree(tilt) of the mountain with this element 4sided root, I was wondered the red box i remarked in the file i attached, I think the tilt degree is the tilt for diagonal direction based. I understand and what is the under box feature that then? Can you tell me what is this purpose for? I tried write numbers there but nothing changed so, I don't know how to use this option. Thank you.

Hizir Apaydin Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Dear Swonno, The field you mentioned with the red box is actually a display error in PVsyst, this field and its value are not used to model the 4-sided roof. I suggest you to use the three red squares in the 3D view to manually design the object in order to check to which property of the roof correspond each field: Please note that you will have to transform your roof to a ground object in order to be interpreted as a mountain: However, please note that the method of using a roof object to design the mountain is not the most appropriate one in PVsyst. You can use one of the import procedures described in the links below to import a topology from Google Earth or Sketchup: https://forum.pvsyst.com/topic/3209-how-to-import-a-ground-topography-from-googleearth/ https://forum.pvsyst.com/topic/3211-how-to-import-a-topology-from-sketchup/ You can also directly create a ground object in PVsyst without going through the roof creation stage: The ground object creation and modification is described here: https://www.pvsyst.com/help/ground_objects.htm Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really appreciate it! Thank you very much! but also Thank you for the tips for designing mountain too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
