Error generating test points using Ladybug 0.2.1

[archjahzzy]

Hi all,

I just installed Ladybug 0.2.1 and Honeybee 0.1.9 to try out creating this from the Hydra tutorials:

However, when I tried to do it, I found out that “Generate Test Points” with only 3 inputs and “Sunlighthour Analysis” are not available anymore.

I thought I could use the “Annual Solar Exposure” to replace “Sunlighthour Analysis” node but I couldn’t even get to that step because when I tried out using the new “Generate Test Points by Grid Size” node, I get an error.

I don’t know how to use this node (also do not know how to read/write python yet), what are the borders for and how do I accurately create inputs for this?

Here’s my dynamo script and a dummy house in revit wc I created for testing:
Sun Path_Sunlight hours.dyn (101.8 KB)
SunPath.rvt (3.8 MB)

I hope somebody could help me… I went through a lot of posts (below) already and some of them went unanswered:

I have an office bulding that have a glare-risk in its east facade at mornings; but it is just a few hours early in the morning and just a few months on a year. I want than to check if at a time I have direct sunlight or not and than check it every morning all over a year. But I can´t find the way. I have started with Ladybug (I haven´t used it before) and try to create a Sunpath (what I did ach…

Problem with running sample files of honeybee/ladybug

Hi, I just opened the sample rvt file together with some dynamo files from honeybee samples and nothing works. [dyn] Can someone point me in the right direction? What should I do with the rooms?

hi，archjahzzy，I guess the node “Generate test points by Grid Size” can’t accept the “surface” you select from the model directly. And I’m confused by the input, “testSurfaces” and “Borders” , and their relationships. I’m sorry for can’t tell you more details, I’m also a newbie……
