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")

A method to set How do I manipulate WWR in eQUEST detailed modemode?

I share When we perform energy analysis in preliminary design stage ,there is a method to situation often occurs,which is the WWR is frequently changed.But in eQUEST,WWR can only be set WWR in eQUEST detailed mode as following:

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?

Secondly,create four global parameters,named E,S,W and N ,which represent for East,South,West and North WWR respectively.

Thirdly,default the height of all windows using follwing expression.
