How do I change the angle of a sun in SketchUp?

How can you adjust the intensity of the sun in the shadows window?

The Dark slider controls the shadow’s intensity. With this option, you can lighten or darken areas under shade or shadows. When the Use Sun for Shading checkbox is selected, SketchUp’s simulated sun shades parts of your model even if shadows are toggled off.

What tools would you use to create accurate shadows in a 3D building model?

Orbit, zoom, and pan around until you have a good view of the part of your project you want to study. Choose Window→Shadows to open the Shadow Settings dialog box. Select the Show/Hide Shadows button to turn on SketchUp’s sun. Make sure the time zone setting is correct for your location.

What happens when you triple click a face in SketchUp?

When you double-click a face, you select that face and all the edges that define it. Double-clicking an edge gives you that edge plus all the faces that are connected to it. When you triple-click an edge or a face, you select the whole conglomeration that it’s a part of.

What is the angle of view of a normal lens?

Standard lenses have an angle of view of around 50 to 55 degrees diagonally. This is roughly the same as the angle that the human eye can comfortably view, which is why it gives a natural-looking perspective.
