Modeling different shading devices in openstudio

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me what is the best way to model shading devices in openstudio? The only tutorial that I could find is this link: http://nrel.github.io/OpenStudio-user-documentation/tutorials/tutorial_shadingcontrols/ But the method it presents does not give me many options such as setting the size and type of the shading, assigning shading to a specific window, etc. Are there other ways that I can define shading devices such as louvers or blinds in openstuido? Also, is there any way that I can see the added shading in the sketchup model? and I need all that for lighting analysis.

Thanks
