*  0° altitude means exactly on your local horizon, and 90° is ''straight up''. Hence, ''directly underfoot'' is -90° altitude.
* The sun altitude and [[Sun azimuth (Heat Overlay)|azimuth]] are calculated automatically based on the project world location and the date.

Icon Attribute Unit Range Description Default value
SUN_ALTITUDE angle (0-90°) The sun angle up from the horizon. 49.71

Notes

  • The sun altitude and azimuth are (re)calculated automatically based on the project world location and the date, when the dates of the overlay are modified via the Heat Overlay configuration wizard. They are not automatically recalculated when the dates attribute of the Heat Overlay is modified directly.
