  1. OK I figured it out. Graham you where right, it was other settings. I started with a new plan and rendered it and compared the settings. For anyone else with this issue in the future. In ray trace, select Edit then go to Lighting and disable the "Enable Environment Light (Outside)". Thank you for your help!
  2. OK , deleted the old sun angle, and with help from everyone on here I did get the sun overhead in the Perspective Floor overview with shadowing turned on. The issue arises when I run the Ray Trace. No matter what settings I have tried I cannot get the background white. It keeps coming out as grey and the overall image is dark, even though in the ray trace options I have changed just about everything even increased all of the intensities to 3+ to see it that would lighten it up, but it would not. I've changed around properties after the setting and I can get the image to lighten up by changing contract etc, but it starts to change the colors and loose contrast in the image. Ive attached 2 images, the perspective view coloring and brightness is what I'm trying to achieve but end up each time with a very greyed out image you can see in the second image. Sorry for being such a NooB
  3. Im currently in the Sun Angle Specifications, nothing called Tilt Angle in here. on any of the selection boxes of sections in this adjustment screen. Will give adding a light source a try, Thank you for your help!
  4. Thats where I currently am, but there is nothing called Tilt Angle...
  5. I'm using X7 - do not see a Tilt Angle. only box that has Anle is in Fill Style -> Angle
  6. Perspective view. Want it to look like this view, but highly rendered.
  7. I'm attempting to make a very clean looking top down view of the first floor, minus the roof and it has a white background.
  8. Hello, can anyone help with suggestions how I can set sunlight to be directly overhead and centered in the image? Or the best way to ray trace with a light source directly from above with no shadows?
  9. Hello, I am working on a small part of a design and the object I have imported is very complex ad 40 meg in size. I have to replicate this 52 times in the design. I've tried everything I could to make this smaller including importing many different file formats. I was wondering if I could take an idea from Video Games and create a 3D box and then add imported image, one to each side to give the illusion of a full 3D when rotated? I know in CA that I can place an image on a surface, but it is possible to create a box or tell the box to treat each surface as a separate surface so i can place a differenet image on each one? Any help would be highly appreciated. -D
  10. Brilliant! That fixed the issue. Thank you!
  11. Hello, I am trying to create a solar array farm on top of a building. I'm looking to find a precise way to align all of the panels with the roof line. The roof line is set up at aa a Shed type of roof so the pitch is making it very difficult to align the solar panels direct on the roof surface. Is there some type of Snap to Roof or align with roof function? Or maybe a way to make all panels on the same layer and then rotate the layer to make it same pitch as roof? Attached is an image of the issue. I just started this but don't want to spend 2 days aligning the hundreds of panels manually? Any help would be highly appreciated. -D
