Can I Extract The Sun Time Of Day Into a DC?
-
Hello,
I'm working on a DC that could benefit from the time of day of the sun. I was wondering if there was a way to get it as a DC function, or another way to get it into my DC so I could use it as a number.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm getting close to the solution here. I think I can figure this out using the SUNELEVATION, SUNANGLE, and LATITUDE functions (I'll have to dust off my spherical geometry and celestial navigation skills). I do have one follow-on question: How do you get a dynamic component to continually update based on changes in the model? In other words, how do I get SUNANGLE to update if I change the Time of Day in the Shadows menu?
Thanks for your help!
Frank.
