Here's a new Technical support case that I wanted to share with our users.
Question: I want to produce a video with a shadow simulation relating to the exact location and time of the day. How do I do that?
Answer: Edificius allows you to take advantage of the daylight shadow simulator. To produce a video, proceed as follows: 01] From the project navigator select the "3D VIEW" node or "REAL TIME RENDERING"; 02] Do a right mouse button click on the selected node; 03] Choose "Add Perspective (playstructure)" or "Add Real Time Rendering"; 04] From the Shadows Toolbar set "Date", "Dawn", "Sunset" and and possible "artificial lighting"; 05] Start the shadow simulation; 06] Click on "REC" button to start recording; 07] Choose whether you prefer a Live recording or from a previously created Camera Roll - then the number of frames per second, etc; 08] Choose the Clock position with date and time; 09] Confirm with the green check icon; 10] Choose the path where you want to save the animation video file; 11] Click "Save" to start recording;
12] After recording you can view the video with your own VideoPlayer; 13] You'll also notice the clock showing the "Date" and "Time".
