3D & Lighting Settings
Configure manual lighting without confusing it with site analysis.
Use 3D & Lighting for project editing defaults and manual sunlight. Geographic site information and time-based analysis use their own controls.
Open the section
Choose Settings → Canvas & drawing settings → 3D & Lighting. The panel contains 3D Defaults and Sun.
Set 3D defaults
Set Default Push/Pull Height using the active measurement units. Adjust Default Camera FOV to change the perspective field of view. These controls do not resize all existing solids.
Adjust sunlight
Set Azimuth, Elevation and Intensity under Sun, and toggle Enable Shadows. Check the result from the 3D view you will use. These are manual lighting controls; they do not establish the geographic site location or a date/time sun study.
Set geographic context separately
Use Site & location for the project’s location and north. Use the relevant Analysis or Presentation controls for their time-based or presentation-specific settings. Review the final output rather than assuming every renderer shares every visual setting.
