Soft Shadows

When you adjust the softness of a shadow, you blur or sharpen the shadow's edges. Soft shadows blend more smoothly with the background.

The default setting is 0 for Soft Shadows with the slider having a range of 0 to 100.

To adjust the softness of a shadow:

1. In the Light Lab, ensure the Cast Shadows option is enabled.
   
   
2. Drag the Soft Shadows control right to soften the shadow's edges or left to sharpen them, or enter an amount in the numeric field.
   
   
3. Click on the OK icon to close the dialog.

Examples:

• Shadow Ambience = 21; Soft Shadows = 0; Color = Hot Pink
  
  
  
  
• Shadow Ambience = 21; Soft Shadows = 81; Color = Hot Pink
