Control Rhino Sun System from GH (Rhinocommon)

In Rhinocommon it is very straightforward to take control of the sun system.

The attached definition will get you there.  There are some weird things happening when I switch locations...the time gets shifted.

I need to look further as it was very quickly implemented.  As you see, only 2 lines of code to mess around with the sun.

    This is a great little definition, however, I'm getting two error messages:

    "Error: The type or namespace name 'Sun' does not exist in the namespace 'Rhino.Render' (are you missing an assembly reference?) (line 86)"
    "Error: 'Rhino.DocObjects.Tables.LightTable' does not contain a definition for 'Sun' (line 86)"

    I'm using Rhinoceros 4.0 v9 and just recently installed the Rhino4.0SDK.  Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

    Michael, I think "Sun" is being added in Rhino 5, I think a beta is out there somewhere.
