There was a plugin made some years ago that would display the time and date on screen. I used it in a shadow study animation I did for a client back then. I'll have to hunt for it because I don't remember where I got it or the name of it.

If I recall correctly this is "time" available from Smustard.

Time would do what you want.
Unfortunately it's no longer available.
I will PM you an alternative 'private' script...

Is this something that is available now as part of SketchUp? Or otherwise...

I have a need for the same to produce a shadow study. It would be great to have something accurate within SketchUp and actually linked to SU's shadow times - rather than adding a timer in After Effects which is what I have done, but this is a very cumbersome solution.

I'll PM you some alternative Ruby code...

I have been looking everywhere for an extension that would show the shadow time in an animation. I hate bugging TIG for a PM with private code. Is it available anywhere else?

[juju]

What do you mean by shadow time?

• The amount of sun / shadow an area would receive?
  or
• The date & time on screen when viewing an area with sun/shadows enabled?

Hello! Can You send a code for me too?

[TIG]

See yesterday's PM...

Hello, Can You send a code for me also?

[luesak]

TIG, could you please share your time script? I am new here so I cannot send PMs!

Thanks

Will you all check your PMs for an attachment...

[luesak]

Thank you TIG!

Tig,
Do you still have this alternate code, or in the last few years are you aware of a newer method?

[TIG]

Look at your PMs...
