How do I add a HB Glass radiance modifier to a HB Aperture that is created by ratio on the solid face? Please see the screenshot attached.
Hi @deepthi.ravi there is a component called HB Apply Window Modifier in 1::Modifiers which will allow you to add the modifier after the apertures by ratio component.
I hope that helps

Thank you so much. That helped.

I have a follow-up question on this.
In the case where a glass/window construction or window modifier is not applied, what does the model assume as the U-value, Transmissivity, G value, etc? Where can I find that information on its inbuilt assumptions on the glass made by the ‘apertures by ratio’?
@deepthi.ravi here is a scene breaking down the default window construction set
the E+ object text from the window:

Hopefully that is helpful
