My windows seem to be shrinking when I export them to E+. They seem to be short in each direction an amount approximately equal to the default frame dimension; however, I have turned off frames/dividers in DB. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

Mike,
It looks like the problem occurs when you export your idf file using older version, e.g. in your case 2.1... It works fine if you export using the recommended E+ version (ver 2.2) i.e. it does not include frames.

Thanks Mahabir and Andy. I just switched to Version 2.2. I'm not sure why I had it set to 2.1. As Mahabir noted, it works fine. No need to dig deeper, Andy. I can move forward with 2.2.

Thanks for your help.
