Sun Chart in ArchiCAD

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello,

I'm wondering if it is possible to create a sun chart in ArchiCAD.

As everybody knows, it is compulsory to know sun and shadow areas in summer and winter in your project.

If not, any extension or complementary program?

Thank you!! 🙂

I found that rather helpful myself! Being a student, we're told to create models and floor plans all the time. One of the biggest problems when it comes to these types of programs is the aspect of lighting/shadows. Any sort of tips and advice are greatly appreciated. w00t! 😉
