Sun Studies

[Darren Allen]

I am looking for the Sun Ribbon or menu for Sun Shading Analysis. Please advise. Thanks.

I still have not found the Sun Ribbon (I still Require it) but I did find the tool bar where I can inport geo locations via Google Earth. When Iinvoke this command the following Error message appears: "The Object invoked has disconnected from its clients." Please advise, Thank you.

What is your CAD version?
And has this Ribbon always been missing for you?
Or is this something new that you want to use?

2010 User Documentation (just happened on this link) shows that this dialog is available from the View Menu

ACAD 2012; The ribbon had been there until I changed my work space to autocad classic and then back to 3D Basics or 3D Modeling.

It may just be off.
Do you know how to go thru the CUI to check it on?
(I usually stumble a bit)

CUI from the Command Line.
Click on your Workspace in the Left pane.
In the Right pane click Customize Workspace.
In the Left tab expand the Ribbon tree and then the Tabs tree.
Click on the Tab you want.
Click Done in the Right pane.
OK

It should now be available in your Workspace

Thanks, That helped me find it.

This may not be the forum for the actual Sun Studies, (please put in the proper forum);

When setting the location to begin a Sun Study, the dialog box requests a .kmz or .kml file. GoogleEarth can save to .kmz and .kml, however, after selecting the file (either type) I get the Geographic Location - Invalid KML File error message, "The .KML file selected is invalid or not readable. Try selecting another file." can any one assist with this? Please advise. Thanks
