      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.

            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..."
