Here are some very basic wishes for the Heliodon tool:
1. Make it so when placed in the drawing by default, the entire heliodon object will be above the layer/working plane so Open GL shadows on the ground will render at the layer/working plane level without having to move the heliodon up in you drawing.
2. When the Heliodon is selected and you open the solar animation dialog, please add a daylight saving button inside the dialog. You can change the date inside to dialog, but to turn on/off DST you have to exit the dialog and check the box on the Info palette, then open the dialog again and re-animate to see the results.
3. When you export an animation to a movie, please allow us to save the export with the date of our choice, not just the 3rd day of the month. If the intention really is to only allow saving a movie one day per month, maybe you could make it the 21st rather than the 3rd, as the solstice is a popular choice when saving animations. Really, who saves animation of June 3 or December 3 anyway?
