Correct Daylight Factor in Lighting Analysis

Correct Daylight Factor in Lighting Analysis

When using a Daylight Factor Sky, Sky Model. It shouldn't  take the location in consideration (I don't think it do - but show as it does).

And the Date/Time and Solar Data should be irrelevant to a Daylight Factor it should be visible, with a grey-out or something..

 

And lastly, as it is a Daylight Factor - the Illuminance settings are in Lux, and not percentage. As it should be when it is a Daylight Factor..! unfortunately this affects the schedules result, -which you can change afterwards - but it is annoying and confusing!!!

Thanks for the suggestions, they are definitely known and high on the priority list.

I wanted to let you know about the new release, which includes an export feature that supports DF by exporting Room ADF (and average Room illuminance) values.  This is sort of a preview of our work on the Daylight Factor Analysis Type.

The new feature is available by checking the Settings (gear icon) box for 'Create CSV Points Results' before generate results for a completed run.  This will export CSV files for raw point illuminance and average Room illuminance to <mydocs>/Autodesk/RevitDaylighting.  If you do an Illuminance run using the 'Daylight Factor Sky Model', the results will yield DF and ADF.
