How do I remove a Windcatcher after it has been finalized
 
Zone with Windcatcher
 
Once the Windcatcher has been added to the zone the geometry of the zone has been changed, if this is wrong and the "undo" is not a feasible option, then the next best possibility is to use the "merge" option in the "Connect Spaces" dialog.
 
Zone without Windcatcher
 
The geometry of the Windcatcher, other than the "Duct" zone, can be deleted.
We now select the "Duct" zone and go into the "Edit Space" option, we have two possibilities; we can either edit the vertices down to the plane of the roof, or we can cut the zone by selecting cutting points on the roof.
We can now "Divide Space" and then "Separate" the two composite spaces and delete the part we don't need to leave us with the trimmed zone.
If we now "merge" these two zones, we get back to the original zone.
 
How do I define thermal data to a manually created component
Currently, the user must define this data after the component has been finalized.  The ability to define this data natively within components will be exposed in a future version.
Note: performance components imported from pre-defined libraries, such as, Monodraught Windcatchers, come with all thermal data pre-defined
