Shading not being applied

Hi.

I am looking for a tutorial/info/posts on fixed site/building/space shading. This is a very basic question because this is my first OS model and so far I am not able to get the shades in my model to work (i.e. some shades are applied to the building and some are applied to spaces but none have any impact (deleting the shades has the same result).

I suspect the problem is something to do with schedules or transmittance settings (which I am still learning about also) but I haven't yet found guidance.

Thanks, Paul
