FAQ: How to draw a Site Object?

1. Go to the Site (tab) and Site Definition (Ribbon) Create/Edit Site Elements Workspace

2. In the Create/Edit Site Elements field select "New". This initiates the process

3. What type of Site Object? (Adjacent Site, Solar Obstruction, Power Demand, Power Generation, Solar Surface)

3.1. Note: Depending on your Object Type selection the inputs in this field will adjust

4. Make the following inputs:

4.1. Name - use default

4.2. Object Type = Adjacent Site

4.3. Shape = Rectangle

4.4. Origin X = -280

5. Hit Save. Now the Adjacent Site is part of the BEM.

6. Now let's add a Solar Obstruction (aka a building next to our building)

7. Select New again

8. Make the following inputs:

8.1. Name = Neighbor1

8.2. Object Sub Type = Building Shading

8.3. Shape = T-Shape

8.4. Origin Values - X = -200; Y =20

8.5. Height = 85

9. Hit Save

10. Save Simergy File, because although the Building Object is part of the Simergy file, the file has yet to be saved.
