[clarified and updated] Sky View simulation results are strange when target building geometry is not included as part of the context

Dear bee and bugs,

I got some strange results when the target building geometry is not included as part of the context geometry for the Sky View simulation using the View Analysis component:

There is no such problem when using the same workflow for Sky Exposure simulation.

I assume the target building itself will be automatically included as part of the context geometry due to consideration of self-obstruction ...

Hope you can kindly advise!

Thank!

Hi Ji,

There is an input that lets you control the self-obstruction of your geometry.

For more information, take a look at this short discussion:

Thanks, Antonello, for the clarification!

But, isn't this option is set to "true" by default for view type 3 and 4?

Hope you can kindly advise.

Hi Jin,

you are right, we should modify a couple of code lines. Thanks

Thank you very much, Antonello!

It's really just about one line of handy code ...

Ji and Antonello,

Thank you very much for finding this bug.  I can't believe that I made a mistake as simple as putting a "<" when I should have put a ">".  So the component was actually doing the opposite of what I said it was in the description.

In any case, I have fixed this on the github now and in the attached file.

Thank you again!
