Thanks a lot Dan! I can confirm that the OpenstudioApp is working fine under Linux Mint 18.1 (Ubuntu 16.04 based).

In my case I tend to use Windows the less possible. I use it for Sketchup modeling but then I move to Linux. It would be great to have a complete Openstudio Linux build as it used to be, with OpenStudioApp + PAT, or at least a short reference to build it from a repo. So mine is a YES! on the request.

PS: Are there problems for PAT on Linux?

I see this link only with instructions to build OpenStudio for Linux but it seams quite general:

is there any extra info I'm missing? Thanks!

Thank you for your answer. Is there any guide/document to install OpenStudioApp and PAT on Linux? I would appreciate that to try myself.

Thanks again in advance.

Thanks for the comment Julien. Unfortunately when you execute de .deb installer, no extra options arise. A complete check for dependencies is done and then a direct install. Maybe I'm missing something "post-install"...?

I just installed Openstudio 2.1 on a 64bit Linux Mint 18.1 machine (based in Ubuntu 16.04) from the official .deb build, but after installing I see no GUI for OpenStudio nor PAT.

I knew and had experienced dependencies errors with previous OpenStudio versions on this same distro and somebody wrote here that wouldn't be a problem for OS 2.1.

Installation went smooth, but unfortunately I'm only able to get openstudio as a command line to execute files but not to edit them or even work with the new PAT.

Am I missing something in my installation?

Thank you very much David. That sounds logical to me. The only thing is that I would need to dig a bit more and start learning some ruby first. Nevertheless, there is an example in the E+ manual that could be adapted to this case under the shading section.

Mmmm.. noup yet. I'm pretty new to EnergyPlus. I'll look for references though. Thanks!

Hi all,

I'm working with OpenStudio and I know that I can add shading control strategies for windows, for example when incident radiation reaches certain value. Now, how could I combine this strategy with another one to completely close an interior blind (or blackout) during sleep hours on a bedroom (this one would work with a schedulle)?

I know I can do one or the other but... how to set up both strategies for the same windows simultaneously? I already tried to drag two shading controls on the same sub-surface but the second replaces the first.

Thanks for the advice!
