A method to set WWR in eQUEST detailed mode

I share a method to set WWR in eQUEST detailed mode as following: Firstly,set WWR to value as large as possible in wizard mode,and then enter the detailed mode.

Secondly,create four global parameters,named E,S,W and N represent for East,South,West,North respectively. Thirdly,default the height of all windows using follwing expression. if (MOD(#p3("AZIMUTH")+#p2("AZIMUTH")+#p("AZIMUTH"),360) >= 0 && MOD(#p3("AZIMUTH")+#p2("AZIMUTH")+#p("AZIMUTH"),360)<60 ) then
#PA("N")*#P3("FLOOR-HEIGHT")*#P("WIDTH")/#L("WIDTH")
else if(MOD(#p3("AZIMUTH")+#p2("AZIMUTH")+#p("AZIMUTH"),360) >= 300 && MOD(#p3("AZIMUTH")+#p2("AZIMUTH")+#p("AZIMUTH"),360)<360 ) then #PA("N")*#P3("FLOOR-HEIGHT")*#P("WIDTH")/#L("WIDTH")

Firstly,set WWR to value as large as possible in wizard mode,and then mode.And once we enter the detailed mode.mode,we can not return wizard mode.So if we have entered the detailed mode,how can we change the WWR?Is there a way to manipulate WWR in detailed mode?

How do I manipulate WWR in eQUEST detailed mode?

When we perform energy analysis in preliminary design stage ,there is a situation often occurs,which is the WWR Window to Wall Ratio (WWR) is frequently changed.But changed. But in eQUEST,WWR eQUEST, WWR can only be set in wizard mode.And once we enter the detailed mode,we can not return wizard mode.So if we have entered the detailed mode,how can we change the WWR?Is WWR? Is there a way to manipulate WWR in detailed mode?
