Description

A raw, grayscale-only version of the Shape Drop Shadow node. It only takes a black and white, binary shapes as input and returns only the shadow.

  • Light Angle: 0.0 - 1.0
    Controls the incidence angle of the light.
  • Edges Softness: 0.0 - 1.0
    Determines how hard or soft the shadows edges are.
  • Samples: 1 - 16
    Sets quality for the Edges Softness setting.
