Enable Shadow analysis from Point in all direction

[Marc-AntoineLem]

At the moment, the shadow analysis allows to select a part  that create a shadow on a surface assuming parallel rays normal the selected plane.

It would be nice to select a point (Light Source or Eyes), a target surface and an object (creates a shadow).

At the moment, I have to create many many features to get a somewhat good of a results.

Hello @Marc-AntoineLem , we have the same needs as you. Can you tell me the method you use to overcome this lack?
Thank you

Hello Pascal,

At the moment, we find the 'shadow area' by creating point on a curve on the object we suspect will create a shadow. Create an axis and intersect point with the surface on which the shadow may appear. We pattern this group of features to give us an idea of the shape.

We haven't found a magic way yet.
