Do you know where your shadow is? If you don't, it might be time to crack open Google SketchUp, watch this episode, and work along with Mike as he demonstrates how to harness the power of shadows and location in SketchUp.

How do you add a light source in SketchUp 8? Let's say, for a desktop lamp.

@Vix847 To create light objects and render them, you would need to install any one of the Photorealistic lighting plugins for SketchUp (such as IDX Renditioner, SU Podium, Shaderlight, Vray, etc.).

With the roof on do the shadows act diff. inside
GTAMAN561 1 year ago
@GTAMAN561 Yes. Although I suppose it depends on whether the roof is set up to cast shadows. You can toggle on/off an entity's ability to cast shadows via the Entity Info window. The "Cast Shadows" setting applies to Face, Group, and Component entities. If you un-check that setting, you could still have the roof turned on so that it was visible, but the light would pass right through it, casting the same shadows as if it were invisible.

is there any free IDX & PODIUM installer to be download freely?tanks
kelvinsatorre 2 years ago
@kelvinsatorre both of the rendering plugins you mentioned have free versions available. a limiting factor for the free versions is that the image size of the rendering is limited to 640px.
