[Radiance-general] RE:Colouring shadows

[Reinhart, Christoph]

Building on John's comment. If you want to learn how to use
Ectoect/Radiance/Daysim you might want to check out the Getting Started
document that we put together for our sutdents at McGill:

Nick,
Is Radiance really the right tool to accomplish what you are trying to
do? There is a program www.squ1.com called EcoTect that allows you to
conduct overshadowing studies and select shadow colors for different
objects. A demo is available for download at www.squ1.com. Also, EcoTect
models can be exported to Radiance.

Email me offline if you'd like to discuss further.

Best,
John

Dear All, 

I am trying to complete some overshadowing comparisons between an
existing and proposed buildings. I would like to generate a single set
of time based images to show the extent of any additional shading from
the proposed compared to the existing situation. 

I would like to be able to highlight the shadows from each building in a
different colour. I could run the simulations twice, for each building
with a bias on the rgb of the sun and combine the images, but I am not
sure whether this would work. 

Can anyone provide me with some guidance.

Many thanks

Nickd
