How to Check HB Shade Settings?

I’m currently working with the Honeybee plugin in Grasshopper and wanted to understand how to check the settings for the HB Shade component.

  1. Are the default values for HB Shade the same as those for HB Shade Construction?
  • I’m curious if the parameters, particularly solar reflection, are consistent between these two components, or if they differ based on the material properties defined in HB Shade Construction.

Hi @Juhyung, they are the same:

component code:
(set _shades access to list)

constructions_ = []
for shade in _shades:
    constructions_.append(shade.properties.energy.construction)

Hopefully that helps!
