About ten years ago TBD made a relatively simple plugin ['Time'?] that adds screen-text, which shows whatever format of time/date you desired.
This updates [per second] between scene-tab changes too, so you can have it displayed in an animated movie too, as the shadows change, so does the screen-text...

Unfortunately it's (c) and he withdrew it from publication...
However, I do have my own version...
I'll PM you something to try...

Hi TIG
Yes-this is exactly what I was looking for. I tried it and it seems like the time displayed is off-shifted from the clock within Sketchup (see pic.) Is there some setting I may be doing wrong?
Thanks for your help

Hi TIG
Yes-that's exactly what I was looking for. I've tried it in Sketchup v 2015 and it works, but the time seems offshifted from the shadow study time. Am I doing something wrong in the settings?
Thanks for your help

Thanks for that idea-what did you use to screen-grab the animation?

Hi All
I'm wanting to animate a shadow study and have the current date/time animate (perhaps as 3d text) so anyone viewing the animation can see the corresponding day/time as they assess the shadow impact. Does anyone know if/how this is possible?
Thanks
