    Okay guys, don't ask me. I just remembered seeing the ruby in the list about two ears ago (never tried). Maybe it has problems with SU 6+? The video plays to me and Didier uses a blue colour for the demo.

      This is just great Chris. Thank you so much.
      I deal with many diffrent urban projects and
      I clearly see that Skechup with smart programmers like yourself
      has great potential in evolving into sth not only for visual outcomes but
      for urban analysis.
      Color by Z is already a great start isn't it?
      Could this kind of approach broadens to....
      **- analyze daytime shadow coverage ratio

      • density analysis(maybe by comparing # of lines certain area contains)
      • open view condition by z**
        and so on and so on...

      If anyone is interested, I would love to discuss about it(just can't program it ;( ).
      Thanks again Chris.Untitled.jpg

        "analyze daytime shadow coverage ratio"

        That is one that has been on my mind lately. I just can't figure out how to figure out the percentage calculations because there is no easy way to get that data out of SU I think. So I would essentially have to find get the location data from the model, and evaluate each face myself using the sun angles every 15 minutes or something and run that on each face etc. I'm really not sure how that would go or if its even feasible. It would be cool if it was.

                You need to have progressbar from http://www.smustard.com installed also. Go install the plugin and then see if the plugin works after that,

                PS - thanks for posting the error!

                    Try removing component spray from you plugins, then try my script. See if that is the problem.

                        Update to the latest version of Component Spray. The old Component Spray caused problems.

                            That is the second error report in the last 2 days that component spray is not fixed. But it was fixed a while ago, so I'm not sure what happened. Maybe Didier updated it and re-broke it? 😑

                              hello Chris,
                              My first post on this great site, and many thanks for this very useful script!
                              Another great implementation would be to give as well possibility to have a [highlight=#ffffbf:11vlkwjz]gradient of transparency[/highlight:11vlkwjz] (I am thinking now of cloud generation....)
