 I&amp;#39;m having a big problem with AECOsim Building Designer (and microstation too). 
 The solar Analysis Utility is blank and doesn&amp;#39;t let me do any solar analysis. 
 
 Please help me</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Solar Analysis Utility unavailable</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/369569?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 27 May 2016 22:20:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:41023c58-b5e9-4fae-96b4-da8647775b6c</guid><dc:creator>Steve Cocchi</dc:creator><description>Nice!    &lt;br /&gt;

Let us know if you see the same results.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Solar Analysis Utility unavailable</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/369167?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 25 May 2016 18:05:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:24da7f10-bff5-4cf2-aef9-684fb8c8a2ac</guid><dc:creator>Tom Danner</dc:creator><description>Rafael,&lt;br /&gt;
I noticed that if you have any 2d files referenced and turned on in your file the tool will gray out.&lt;br /&gt;
Detach or Turn off any 2d references and tool will become active.&lt;br /&gt;
HTH&amp;#39;s&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Does it make any difference which DGN file + Model is active at the time?    What happens if you rename your local \prefs and allow a new set of preference files to be generated?    Just thinking out loud...&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Solar Analysis Utility unavailable</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/368792?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 23 May 2016 08:32:54 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:258a4a14-767a-4906-b451-a69fa69a6f3d</guid><dc:creator>Rafael Bombardiere Carvajal</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5917/2465.solarproblem.png"&gt;&lt;img src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5917/4130.2465.solarproblem.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Thank you Bettina,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But the model is a 3d model and the active view is the 3d one and I still have the problem.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Let me show you&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Solar Analysis Utility unavailable</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/368772?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 23 May 2016 06:39:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:0da0c485-9b06-4bb1-81ba-d0f2349c314b</guid><dc:creator>Bettina Lautenschlaeger</dc:creator><description>Hello,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the Solar Analysis is only available in a 3D Model. Please check if you have a View window with a 3D Model active if you wanted to use the function.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Regards&lt;br /&gt;
