Request: Sun Position "as-is"#330283

Usually I move my sun into position to get just the right result. Can the Maxwell plugin have an option to simply read the sun exactly where it is in model space? Using the FormZ light position dialogue box is a pain...

Hi,
Thanks for your suggestion. This should be possible in a future version. (Major changes to lights will be made for formZ 7.)

Hi Ben,

This would be a great timesaver!

Hi Bob,

Welcome!
This capability is already in the alpha Bonzai3d plugin, and will be in the plugin for formZ 7, too. Lots of other new light goodies, too.
