      Was thrilled to find the

      receives_shadows?
      

      method (drawingelements class) in the SketchUp documentation, having planned to use it to test whether a given face/polygon was receiving shadows under my assumed shadowinfo conditions...

      unfortunately, I was wrong-- the method test whether an element is ENABLED to receive shadows-- an attribute

      My question: Is there a way to test within a model whether a face/ drawing element is presently shadowed?

      ps I am very grateful for this site and its knowledgeable, generous moderators
