Evaluate the impact of natural light and shadows on the buildings and site.
Use the sun path and the sun settings dialog, either individually or together, to create solar studies that suit your needs. Solar study modes (Still, Single Day, Multi-Day and Lighting) are available in the conceptual design environment as well as the project environment.
Sun Settings
Access to Sun Settings is now available on the ribbon (while in solar study mode). In addition, you can now set shorter time increments. In Revit 2024 you can study shadows using 15, 30, 45 or 60 second intervals.
Previously limited to orthographic views, editing drag-and-drop operations are now enabled in perspective view. This includes dragging the sun along its path.
About the Sun Path
The sun path is a visual representation of the suns range of movement across the sky at the geographic location specified for the project.

By showing the impact of natural light and shadows on your project, solar studies yield valuable information that can help support effective passive solar design.
