Revit Shadow

Hello Revit Community,

 

I hope someone can help me with this... So I'm doing a sun/shadow study where I have this tower is casting shadow over this site and the surrounding houses/towers/etc is also casting shadows.

 

So the objective is to separate the shadow that is cast by the tower and the other shadows that is being cast by the surrounding area.

 

Question is, there is a way I can change the color/opacity of the tower that is casting the shadow? I've thought about using photoshop to do it or even drawing a filled region. Hopefully someone has a better suggestion than the one I came up with.

 

Thanks,

There is no way to do this inside of Revit shadows are either on, or off.  There is no control over the appearance of the shadow.

 

The filled region idea you had is probably the only way inside of Revit to do something like this.

Autodesk used to have Ecotech that did just that, differentiating existing and new shadows graphically.  I am not sure if they ditched it or combined it into another package.  With pure Revit, you have to render two scenes and overlay them in photoshop to bring out the difference.

Maybe you would need to use 2 files, overlay views, use "By Linked View", to be able to separate the shadows and adjust the lighting settings in each file.

Hi @Anonymous, 

 

Yes there is a way to make you tower not cast any shadow.

It works in any view style except for rendering and realistic.

 

Tab-select your object (or just select it ) , right-click and Override Graphics in View > Element.

In the Surface transparency section, just enter 99 instead of 100.

 

It won't cast any shadow anymore.

 

Hope this helps,

 

François

Does anyone had the answer from Vincent's query? I also want to find the solution for that.

There were several listed... There is no direct way to do this in OOTB Revit.
