I have built my model in OpenStudio and tried to model different shading scenarios in OpenStudio and afterwards in EnergyPlus but couldn't.

couldn't. Would you please help me with that? I used WindowProperty:ShadingControl "WindowProperty:ShadingControl" in EnergyPlus and the only type of shading which worked was SwitchableGlazing "SwitchableGlazing" but When I try with other types such as Interior or Exterior shade or blind it fails.

I have already defined Shading and blind material and added it to construction of the window, but faces the error:

GetHTSubSurfaceData: Window "SUB SURFACE 2" must not directly reference a Construction (i.e, "WINDOWS USED") with a shading device.

In FenestrationSurface:Detailed FenestrationSurface:Detailed I have tried both referring and not referring to the defined shading control, but always face the above error.

Would you please help me with that?
