The credit language for c8.1 is states:
"However, designs that incorporate view-preserving automated shades for glare control may demonstrate compliance for only the minimum 0.150 value"
I'm I correct in interpreting this to mean that spaces with a VLT X WFR above 0.18 can be counted as daylit in the prescriptive method if they have automatic shades?

Nena, you are correct. As long as your VLTxWFR is above 0.15 and you have automatic shades, that area is compliant.
