3D Shade Calculator was created by gafwjwlitespeed
Hello
I have been experimenting with the 3D shade calculator and I do not understand the results I'm getting. I created a scene with 2 arrays on a basic residential roof at 20 degrees facing South. I am getting substantial shading from the roof and the box underneath the active area. This does not make sense to me. See attached file. I created different scenarios with the presence of different elements i.e. array,roof, box. Am I doing something wrong in the 3D scene? Thanks.

Hello,
That is an issue that was supposed to be fixed in the latest update to SAM 2017.9.5 r3. We are investigating, and I will report back to you.
The problem is caused by objects under anactive surface, so as a temporary workaround, you can avoid it by not placing objects under the active surfaces.
Best regards,
Paul.
