In the meantime, you can use a stripe made of emissive material. Please be sure to use the preview version of Enscape for SketchUp (at the bottom of our download page) or wait a few days for V2.0 - in the current release version, I won't get this nice soft light under the emissive surface but with the new version (or preview) it should work great.

It does "work" but not well enough or controllable enough to use as a fluorescent tube or neon, one needs to fiddle with contrasts and day times to get it to "glow" enough, but then it does not light up an area so one needs to add spots or point lights to cast light, too fiddly and not a good solution, we are waiting for better lights and well, better materials in general.

thank you for your answer, but I have to disagree. I have take the time to create a small comparison emissive materials in Revit / SketchUp, and while the controls of course are different, there's no real difference in quality:

I know this is a very basic test, if you're aware of any shortcomings feel free to share them with us, but I just wanted to make sure that there's no real difference in quality between Revit and SketchUp at this point.

Hi, maybe a suggestion to put some sample material/lighting example files to give us the most / best available solutions to get on with it? Or an extended webinair especially about this subject to get the most out of the Enscape capabilities as in Revit and Sketchup platform?

Without using a rendering engine for proper lighting effects, is there any way I could create a simple light wash effect to indicate the presence of under cabinet lighting, concealed strip lights etc?
