Make North and all elevations have even light and shadows
-
Has anyone a good method for shading four sides of the building for elevations such that North (in the northern hemisphere) is just light with some shadows? I sometimes add the north arrow and change north for a scene. The problem is having elevations that appear dark or having to adjust shadow light/dark for those scenes. I would like a quick way without having to tweak every time.

Elev45shadows.rb plugin works well.

Thanks! I'll try that

Warning!
"It will realign North in each processed view, but all recent versions of
SketchUp allow only one North at a time, so you'll need to copy the model's
SKP for each shadowed view and use the scene-tabs to get proper shadows..."
