Vista in VE 6.1.1 bug report

[huntervu28]

Hi VE developper team,

I found this problem, it is small thing but it's bit inconvenient when checking out overload of coil.

bug description :
When I view total Q addition/removal in a coil which is located in a multiplex,
After clicking on "peak day graph" button, IES show a nice graph, then I pick on the up or down button (two buttons on the right toolbar "Display Layer" name), the name of room switch but "peak day graph" doesn't show.

Note : This bug only occurs in IES 6.1.1, doesn't exist in 6.1.0.1

That's odd, this seems to work ok for me in 6.1.1. Does it happen for all models you build? Any idea what we're doing differently?

My basic test workflow:
1. Build a model with a few rooms
2. HVAC import Prototype systems, (I then tested with prototype system 4 and then 5)
3. In the multiplex assign rooms by room group (new layer for each room)
4. run ApacheSim with link to Apache HVAC system switched on
5. In Vista or Vista Pro select System results, HVAC system, Components results, Total Q addition/removal then click on a Coil and view either graph of results or Peak day graph - switching through the multiplex layers the results are updated correctly for each layer/room.

Thank Phil for your quick answer

In this case, I use custom HVAC system, but in my opinion, HVAC custom or prototype makes no different. Anyway I will try to use prototype tomorow.

My VE 6.1.1 is upgraded from 6.1.0.1, have you installed all new VE or upgrade ?

I'm likely running with a full install at the moment but that shouldn't make any difference.

It could be a legacy from an older issue with your HVAC network if it was created using a different version of <VE>, I've seen this occasionally in the past. The issue shouldn't be affected by whether you use the prototype systems, I just used that in my test case for quickness.

I'll send you a DM to ask for your project so I can investigate further here
