Hello! I want to create some floor plans with sketchup and enscape. when I look at this floor plan with the section function and want to render with Enscape, I always see the shadow from the roof or ceiling, although it shouldn't be visible!? can someone help please?!

Hello visupro , thanks for your inquiry.
Allow me to share my previous reply to another thread discussing the same topic:
Currently, and most likely in the future, this behavior is normal and to be expected. Unfortunately, Enscape only receives the geometry data of the entire uncut scene so to speak from SketchUp itself, which is why these open sections/cuts can not let any light. The only workaround, for now, would be to remodel the scene accordingly, but I know this is not an ideal solution of course.
If we're ever able to work around this in the future, I'll let you know too.

I have to say that it's really anything but ideal and I can't understand why this function isn't offered. I hope that this will be possible in the next version of Enscape, otherwise I will have to change the program..
I wish this would be something we could easily fix as well, but unfortunately, our hands are tied here - Alongside I am not sure if any other rendering solution out there (be it offline or real-time) is able to work around this limitation. It would be sad to see you go of course, but I can already tell you that this is not something we'll be able to resolve with our next version of Enscape.

I’d you build floor by floor then knocking out floor plans is easy, I do them for every project I do.
