sunproperties - How to Change Colour of Sun

julian_parsonsQNTBD — Fri, 23 Feb 2024 09:34:31 GMT

There are three general settings for the sun:

On/OFF
Intensity
Colour

I want to change the colour from 197,187,153 to a more realistic colour. The problem is that the program does not offer the option to change the colours. Theoretically there should be a pull down menu giving me this option, but there seems to be an error in the programming.

Is there a way to correct this problem or a work around solution that can help me? I would talk to AutoCAD directly but I have not found a way to send my feedback that something is not working as it should.

(I am using AutoCAD 2021)

Exactly.

Try other light options instead. lots of them. Any color you want.

This is not the forum for your software. This is a forum for this version of AutoCAD instead

The color of the sun is adjusted through the white balance slider and exposure settings. The values shown coincide with temperature scale for lighting as shown below. The exposure slider will effect the amount of color.
