Please advice I am getting idf files in many formats. I need to run the idf file in Energy Plus and want to look for the WindowShadingControl information.

What type of report I need to add to the idf output paragraphs, to find which WindowShadingControl each window use (or which windows belong to each WindowShadingControl)

I can find the info of the windows in the eio if I add surfaces output but cant seem to be able to locate the WindowShadingControl

Recent versions of EnergyPlus added some tables that may be useful. The EnvelopeSummary report now describes the Exterior Fenestration Shaded State and the ShadingSummary report now includes a table on Window Control. The second one is shown below:
