Hm, that may be to easy... e.g. if your office is on the West facade and 
you directly look into the sun, it may be even worse at 9m distance...

Evalglare includes the vertical illuminance into its glare predictions, 
and (Jan can tell more about this) has been developed under conditions 
with higher vertical illuminance. So look at all the 9m, but be careful 
with those low-illuminance-locations.

> How can i fix the warnings?

No way to fix, it is a warning to catch your attention, not a bug to fix ;-)

Cheers, Lars.
