I've been using a couple of JD's great plugins but am considering starting to use Maxwell Studio for some of my larger scenes. I'm finding what appears to be a "bug" in the sun position when rotating the ground. The compass correctly points to the North in the scene when entering the calculated angle, but the sun representation with the north arrow is completely off...it does render correctly but is confusing as it's completely in the wrong position :shock:

I'm a little hypervigilant about that since I just did a sun study for a client and somehow between the two 3d apps in my workflow I entered the wrong value for the ground rotation.

That's it!
Somewhat related question....is there a way to change the color of the compass...I have a really hard time reading it being greyed out like that.

You can't, but you can switch on/off the viewport sky display using the K keyboard key.

That's good. Thx. Any thoughts on that sun-indicator bug fix?
