Hello, 

I have a topo surface in my project that i am trying to add color to.I would like to show the color getting darker as the elevation gets deeper. Does anyone know a way that i can do this? I am using Revit 2018.

None that I have ever seen or heard of.

A long time ago in AutoCad (35 years), I modeled clouds in the sky so they would cast shadows to help see site undulations.   I never tried that in Revit.
