Annual Sunpaths view is the Target azimuth. However, this should not affect the solar access
calculations. See Figure 2-30 below.

The first display that you see after you capture a new skyline is the annual sunpath view. You
can also access this view by selecting > View > Annual sunpaths . This view shows the
annual sunpaths drawn on top of the captured skyline. The detected open sky is shown in yellow.
The detected shade-causing obstructions are shown in green.
The Results panel in the lower center portion of the display can be configured to show solar
access percentages or solar resource percentages.
