Left click to place shading objects
Users can insert shading object models of houses, electrical poles, electrical towers, trees, wind turbines, lightning arrester model and cuboid separately in SketchUp.
Place shading objects by coordinates
When placing shading objects by coordinates, press Enter to open the coordinate input dialog and imput X and Y coordinates.
If there are marked shading objects in CAD, users can use the "getxy" command to directly batch export the coordinates of the shading objcets and paste them into the dialog box.
Note: The coordinates are in the geodetic coordinate system, separated by commas between X and Y.
