Dates (Shadow Overlay)

Icon	Attribute	Unit	Range	Description	Default value
	DATES	time in milliseconds		Dates specify the day and time used to calculate sun angles.	1375444800000

Notes

• It is recommended to use the Shadow Overlay Wizard to generate and edit the dates.
• Sun altitude and sun azimuth are automatically recalculated based on project location and date when using the Shadow Overlay configuration wizard, but not when modifying the dates attribute directly.
• The dates are stored as milliseconds past the defined epoch. Care should be taken when manually adjusting these numbers!
