  Re: LPub: Rendering mainly black and dk grey models
 
(...) No it doesn't and Yes I have ;-) Perhaps "shadows" is not the right word. It's more the different intensity of the reflected light (see (URL) OK, so if all the faces were the same intensity you wouldn't be able to tell the shape of an (...) (20 years ago, 28-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub: Rendering mainly black and dk grey models
