    • RE: [Plugin] Skelion (solar, shadows)

      I must have been entering something wrong as it seems to match it now on some of our previous models we've done.

      However, I did notice on the following attachment, that it doesn't seem to align itself along the roof edge and thus having an angled system from top left to bottom right.

      Judging by the measurements we can get two rows of panels aligned with the rooftop edge, but just wanted to throw this out to you.

      Cheers

    • RE: [Plugin] Skelion (solar, shadows)

      I really like this plugin for SketchUp, had I'd known about it from the very beginning it would have helped me produce models quicker and easier.

      Anyway, my main question regarding the plugin is how do I get it to maximise the full area when laying down solar panels? For example, I put a 16" offset from the edge of a residential roof. After selecting the now smaller area and when I have plugged in the tilt/azimuth, etc., the panels don't take up all the space available. They seem to work from the middle > out. I had to move them to one side to add an additional 2 rows within the same space.

      Is this just in the free version or is it deliberately set up like this?
