    Default Shadow Tool trick

    I probably knew this years ago but I accidentally stumbled upon it again today.

    With an object selected, and the Shadow Tool selected, press the numbers on your keyboard to toggle though the shadow types, 1= None, 2= Wall, 3=Floor and 4=Glow.

    Yup, I have 690 of these. I shall publish in a day or two as it uncovers a lot under the hood, good and bad.
