Hi everyone…

I need to get the glare index in a space for a specific point… I tried to get task Position UV and Angle, but I failed…

please, tell me how to get a specific point… And what is the utility of task Position Angle if I get the UV point?

The values should be between 0-1 for uv values. I usually use an MD slider.

Sorry, but can you tell me what is the meaning of the Angle? and why it is just U and V ? I mean any position should be x, y and z!

The task position for the view? However I already have a view (human eye)!

I am sorry … I am little confused … could you please explain to me the position for what?

Thank you very much

Sorry for the late follow up. Because I have the same confusion and I tried to change the values for UV and Angle, but nothing happened for running the DGP components.  
Anyone could help with this?

It should work without issues using the [HB Glare Postprocess](https://docs.ladybug.tools/hb-radiance-primer/components/4_results/glare_postprocess) component in LBT 1.4.
