Options

The option window gives you the opportunity to chance some settings like language, colors in the Visualization Box or changing some data.

General

  • Language: Here you can change your language. Current available languages are English, German and Italian.
  • Unit System: Change between SI and PI. Keep in mind, that changing the Unit System mid-work will cause rounding errors.
  • Dimensions:
  • Responsible Person: Feel free to set your real name.
  • Default directory: WUFI will always open this directory, if you try to save or open a project. If you want to work in another directory, you should change it for time saving reasons.


Colors / Transparency

  • Standard colors: Changing the colors will change the colors of the associated parts of the building in te visualization box.
  • User defined colors: Define your own colors.
  • Transparency:
  • Set standart values: If your house has gotten too colorful, this will reset the standard colors. It will NOT reset the transparency

View

In View it can be decided whether only components defined in the according zone or all components adjoining the zone can be seen if single zones are viewed in the Visualization Box. If you want to find out how to view single zones, click here. This is important as components can be adjoining one zone but belong to another. To check whether zones are closed the second option should be checked.

The "View when editing Openings/Windows" just determines whether the view in the component Openings window should be from inside or outside. This setting can easily be changed in the component Openings window itself, too.

Edit Data

= Tool tip

The tooltip can be a great help, when working the first few times with WUFI®Passive. By putting the cross in "General info", the tooltips are activated. Drag your mouse over an empty field, to get info about its function. The "Value range" will then also give you typical values of your field. Under "References", associated norms are displayed.

Batch mode

Here you can change the output result, WUFI will give out in batch mode.
