Shadow Colour

Shadow studies are an integral part of the municipal approval process for any proposed development. They provide crucial information about the impact of shadows cast by the building and help architects and designers make informed decisions. AgileForm Shadow Colour, a plugin for Autodesk Revit, offers a comprehensive solution to visualize and analyze shadow studies. With its wide range of features and user-friendly interface, it is a must-have tool for any Revit user.

Organize Elements with Ease

One of the standout features of Shadow Colour is its ability to organize elements by layers. Whether it's the proposed development, approval, city context, or any other category, you can easily group and manage elements. This simplifies the process of selecting specific elements for shadow studies and makes it incredibly efficient to work with large-scale projects. The intuitive interface allows you to toggle between different layers effortlessly, providing a seamless user experience.

Instant Preview and Outline Creation

The plugin's instant preview feature is a game-changer. As you make changes to your study, you can see the impact in real-time. This allows for quick iterations and fine-tuning without the need for time-consuming renders. The ability to create outlines for shadows adds an extra level of clarity to your studies. By assigning a different color to shadows cast within a selected site, you can easily distinguish between various elements in your design. This feature is particularly useful for presentation purposes and streamlines the communication of your ideas.

Generate and Export Shadow Study Images

Shadow Colour offers a seamless workflow for generating shadow study images. Once you are satisfied with your study, you can export or directly place the images onto a sheet. The plugin provides a variety of export options, allowing you to choose the format that best suits your needs. This flexibility ensures compatibility with different software and ensures that your shadow studies seamlessly integrate into your project documentation.
