Creating Sunlight Environments

You can create the scene lighting based on the sunlight.

With a sunlight environment, you can stage a model under a realistic sky and light from the sun at a specific time of year and location on earth.

There are two ways to create a sunlight environment. You can create a sunlight environment in SOLIDWORKS Visualize or you can create a sunlight environment in SOLIDWORKS and import the sunlight data to SOLIDWORKS Visualize.

To light the scene based on the sunlight:

  1. Click Project > Scenes > New Sunlight Environment.
  2. Edit the parameters on the Scenes tab.
